outline of a bird to make in needlepoint

Don’t you just love this bird template? They are such great shapes and they make such a wonderful starting point for creative needlepoint.

You can go directly to the post to download them as a PNG or PDF.

I keep thinking about cool things to do with them. You could do them as bargello or stitch samplers, you could make a realistic bird. You could add embellishments.

To put them on needlepoint canvas, follow the instructions on All about Needlepoint and stitch away!

The designs are from tricia-rennea’s blog and she did them originally to be cut out of paper. I learned about them from Sister Denise at Craft Gossip.
