Plum Street Samplers CARDINAL KIN and Cardinal Kin II Cross Stitch Pattern ~ Cardinal Cross Stitch
Aren't cardinals just the sweetest little songbirds? They are beautiful no matter the season, and the females are my very favorites. Even as a child, I remember thinking their soft brown feathers were the most beautiful color. When I designed this, I couldn't decide if I preferred the brighter, more traditional colors or the more Victorian-colored palette. So I've included both in the same chart!
Stitch count: 54 w x 90h each
Fabric used: 36 ct Patriot's Brew by R&R was used on the more traditional version, while 36 ct. Winter Brew by R&R was used on the darker version (Cardinal Kin II).
