A Little Birdie Or Two.
Posted on | April 2, 2013 | 13 Comments
On our recent trip I made a point of taking some stitching with me. I made sure it was something easy that could be picked up and worked on without too much fuss.
These are two of the pieces from Teddlywinks. They are pre-printed stitcheries. I used a variegated Cottage Garden thread for both.
Very portable and good to work on.
We thoroughly enjoyed our time in NYC.
After a little study we managed to master the subway system.
I really enjoyed the way many of the stations had decorative designs relating to the stop.
This one is the stop near the zoo in Central Park.
And these were near the Museum of Natural History – marine murals and fossil plaque.
I think these were great ways to identify stops. Good entertainment, too.

Again I am behind on my blog reading. You were quite productive on your vacation. What adorable little birdies! Great NY photos. My trip was so short there that I never really got the hang of the subway system!
Love those cute little stitcheries Karen and your photos of the subways are wonderful. So neat!
It sounds like you had the best of times!
Hello Karen,
Such pretty threads for your stitching. Those penguins are rather cute.
Have a great day.

Your birds are so sweet and look great with variegated cottons. I was so impressed with the subway when I was in NY. I was tempted to just travel from station to station to see the different murals. Thanks for reminding me with your great photos.
Your little stitcheries are lovely. Fabulous idea with the stations, much easier to see where you are with pictures than signs. Hugs
The birdies are so sweet, I love those little booties on them! Thanks for the photo share of your visits, It’s fun to see so many places I’ve never been up in the New York state ~

Karen, your stitching is wonderful!!! I love the photos of NYC….hope to get there sometime (other than the airport)!!
Those are some great little stitcheries. I like the thread you’ve used, and how neat to see such a colorful look at the underground in New York!
Hi Karen,
Love the stitcheries and the thread is pretty special. Good idea to take something small and easy on holidays, because you can’t not do any!! lol. Love the pics of the penguins etc, a great way to show stops along the way. Some people are very creative.
Cheers, Anita.
Love the stitcheries…beautiful threads too. It was great seeing some of your holiday snaps. Neat wall murals.

what a great way to decorate the stations. I love the underwater mosaic.
