Air Mail MAY #2 Red-Cheeked Cordon-Bleu Cross Stitch Pattern by Lindy Stitches
Air Mail MAY #2 Red-Cheeked Cordon-Bleu Cross Stitch Pattern. Continuing this little series featuring feathery stamps! This is the second stamp, representing May with its flowering trees and sunshiney goodness. As soon as I saw the Cordon-Bleu I fell into serious twitterpation. The Air Mail series is SO FUN to stitch with its concentric circles in a geode pattern for the wing! The colors are just a joy to work with!
About the series: The Air Mail series will be releasing throughout 2023 and 2024. The entire series will feature a bird stamp of the same dimensions.

Beautiful pattern easy to follow the colours are so beautiful this is proving to be a very enjoyable holiday stitch I look forward to finishing it and starting another
I’ve just completed the stitching of #1 for summer camp with Colorado Cross stitcher. I’m looking forward to stitching #2. I appreciate being able to purchase the fun pattern, fabric, specialty threads, and finishing materials for each of these Crosstitch patterns. Fun to stitch! Easy to fully finish! Thank you!
Love the colors and really like the floss. Have not started this pattern yet but it is in line for me to start soon. Looking forward to stitching it.
I love this series! The colors are amazing. I finished the first air mail bird and cannot wait for the entire series. As always, lightening fast shipping!
I LOVE your Air Mail birds. I am primarily a sampler stitcher but there are 3 designers whose work can me tempt me from samplers. Lindy Stitches is one of the three. Thank you for all you do.
