I do not plan to stitch the backside but I have some nice bright fabric I&#8217;ll use instead. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It was so quick I decided to go ahead and stitch a second small that also promised to be a 2 session project. This one is called Red Bird and Basket from JBW Designs. I bought the little kit from another stitcher awhile ago and it came with the little needlebook to stitch and the floss. How cute is this?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"882\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.marysthread.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/img_6137.jpg?resize=640%2C882&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4450\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>It was a little tricky to stitch the tiny little sewn-in patch of linen. I think I&#8217;ll poke in a little interfacing to catch any ends that didn&#8217;t get tacked down well. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These were so rewarding that I thought about doing even one more small but didn&#8217;t quite get it done.
