Red Birds for Peace

Stitched on 32 ct. white MCG linen with DMC conversion.  The design is 56x56, but the linen is not evenly woven.  I substituted Mill Hill beads for the red stitches in the tree, and added sequins in place of the Smyrna crosses.  Hemstitched using a combination of this tutorial by Carol of iStitch and the stitch instructions from Intermediate Whitework by Teresa Wentzler.
