Another Version.

 I decided to use my Curlew Sandpiper stamps for another project, and after printing the background and using the carved water stamps and two of the bird stamps, I realised that I had an old frame that was just the right colour and size for this new work
 Although I intend stitching on this piece, I fitted it into the frame to check the size and colour, perfect!
Here I've started stitching, just a simple running stitch to emphasise the water and to delineate the birds. As the bird stamps are just outlines, the water and sand was visible where the wing pattern isn't, so I  painted the bird bodies with white fabric paint.
