Ornament Exchange Patterns

I located the source for the pattern for the birds I sent some of my exchange friends.
This was the snowbirds pattern at Steff's needlework web site

Steph Osborne Scroll down to "Christmas Snow Birds (3 patterns).

Also accessible through Christmas Patterns

I made some alterations to the pattern as I went which unfortunately I didn't write down, also the pattern calls for thread, I used sport weight yarn and an E or F hook. --margaret heuman
