Better Late Than Never

My finish for the Winter Challenge at Needlecraft Haven that is. It should have been finished by the end of February.
We had a choice of a Christmas or a Non-Christmas design, and I went for the Non-Christmas one, a sweet little bullfinch from Aliolka (Chart here, there is also a Bluetit, which I might go back and do later)


I finished it off as a small pillow with a log cabin style mis-matched fabric border
At least I'm up to date on my Temperature SAL...

Great challenge piece Christine, your temperature colours look great, it is so interesting to see how much our temperatures change each day.

Your winter challenge piece is lovely! The temperature SAL is always wonderful to see as they are all so different.

That's a great little pillow finish. The backing fabrics are perfect for the stitching colours.

Nice work on the Temperature SAL too. I decided against doing one this year as it would have compelled me to do one every year!
