I’ve just finished another of the letters for the bird alphabet book. The letter F has a very sweet little chaffinch.
Now I’ve completed A to F, I’m nearly a quarter of the way through the alphabet. I’ve started G which has what I think is a female black cap. I’m still trying to work out what size to finish the pages as I could do with starting to back-stitch round the edge as I go, rather than leaving them all to the end, I could even start to stitch the pages together. Although the letters are around the same size, the foliage around them does make some wider, I think I need to have a play with the letter’s I’ve done and make a decision.
Here’s the first six letters of the bird alphabet…

They are lovely. Could you skip ahead to one of the wider letters like W or M and finish that before making a decision on final size of the pages? You don’t want to decide and then not have enough room

Thanks, I think what I need to do is spend some time checking the charts to see what I need for the widest letters as you say.
