…my true love gave to me: a French hen to go with my two turtle doves and partridge in a pear tree!
By the time Satsuma Street released their holiday designs last year, I was done with taking on last-minute crafting projects. (Excuse me while I snicker behind my hand.) That didn’t stop me from buying the charts, though: one of them was the third installment in the 12 Days of Christmas series, and since I had stitched the first two last year it was a given I had to do this one as well.
Mon dieu! A French hen!

I didn’t think to take a picture of the back, but once I was finished stitching and attaching the beads and sequins, I glued it to glittery white felt so it will shimmer no matter how the lights catch it.
The four calling birds have been released, so I’ve got at least one project for next year lined up already.
Thanks for looking! 🙂
