Birds.

I found this little beauty in an antique shop. How long would this have taken to stitch?? Nearly all in tiny, perfect chain stitch!

Oh wow! That one with the cherries and bird on it is truly amazing! You found a real treasure there. If I would have seen that one at the same time you did, well, there may have been a tussle over it (giggle). :o)
