I thought I would share some recent photos of my progress. I am so thankful that I decided to use my “basketweave, or Burlap” stitch for the base. As you can see in the photo, it allowed me to use the flat posts to insert the silk threads for creating the “contour” feathers of the Cardinal.
The next photo give you a peek at the contour feather on the back.
I have been blessed with a taxidermist in the family, so he is my go-to guy for reality checks.
