Bird Embroidery

I just made this little pillow for my husband's grandma. Using a pillow form makes it a cinch! I embroidered the fabric using a mountain bluebird pattern from Martha Stewart and then sewed it into an envelope cover. I just used a backstitch because I cannot figure out the chain stitch - can anyone teach me?

    This turned out really pretty! I like that you used the backstitch because I think it looks cleaner than the chain stitch sometimes does. Good job!

    Thanks! I really like the bird patterns, and it was not too difficult. I think I'll make a cardinal next...
