Pair of Blue Folk Art Birds on Branches

About this design

This graceful embroidery design features a matched pair of stylized folk art birds perched on slender arching branches. Worked in smooth satin and fill stitches rather than cross stitch, each bird is rendered in deep violet and royal blue with a soft white breast, a delicately curved neck and a fanned tail that gives the pair an elegant heraldic quality. Long pointed green leaves and small trefoil sprigs extend from the branches beneath them, balancing the composition in a clean symmetrical arrangement on a cream background. The limited palette and flowing lines make this a refined motif for heirloom and home decor stitching. Stitch it onto table runners, placemats, napkins, pillowcases, tea towels and hoop wall art, or add it to quilt blocks, cushions, tote bags, aprons, curtain borders, blouse yokes and linen napkins. This timeless bird motif makes a thoughtful gift for weddings and anniversaries, housewarmings, hostess thank-yous, bird and nature lovers, Mother's Day and craft fair projects. Compatible with popular embroidery machine formats including DST, PES, EXP, JEF, VP3, HUS, XXX, PEC, and more.
