Cardinal Kin by Plum Street Samplers
Note from the designer: “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!”
Pattern is stitched on 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). Stitch count is 54 w x 90h each. Finished sizes for each is 3 in wide X 5 in high.
