Note from designer: The design When Cardinals Appear is based on the beautiful quotation: "When cardinals appear, loved ones are near". It's so meaningful to those of us who have lost a loved one. It is a companion to last years' Bluebird of Happiness Sampler. The model was stitched on a #36 linen in the color Vanilla Bean from R & R Reproductions. I used a variety of Classic Colorworks and Weeks Dye Works fibers, with DMC equivalents listed in the booklet.
Pattern is stitched on 36 count Vanilla Bean by R&R Reproductions using Weeks Dye Works, Classic Colorworks and DMC threads.
The stitch count is: 166 W x 116 H.
Note from the designer: In the color code, the star symbol: * should be a solid triangle facing down. Romance - Weeks Dye Works/DMC 3350.
