British Bird
Lesley Teare 2024 Stitch Along - Subscription
CROSS STITCH PATTERN READY TO DOWNLOAD, DESIGNED BY Lesley Teare Designs

Available as a subscription, Lesley Teare's exciting new SAL will be released monthly in 12 parts throughout 2024. It features 12 birds native to the British Isles, with a new cross stitch chart becoming available each month.

The design is set within a frame, which you can stitch ahead of time and will help you position each bird as it becomes available. Each part will feature all previously released  parts of the chart, as well as the additional bird.

The chart is mostly cross stitch, with areas outlined in backstitch, a couple of French knots as well as some fractional stitches for detail. Each bird motif is very colorful and full of rich detail.

The piece is stitched on any white fabric of your choice, be it Aida, evenweave or linen.

Get a head-start and downoad both legend and frame chart now so you can source all your supplies. This chart includes the cross stitch frame which we suggest you cross stitch ahead of time so you only need to fit a new bird motif every month.

Note: Lesley Teare is offering not one, but two 2024 SALs, with the companion SAL American Birds sold sparately. Why not stitch both?
