Snowbirds

Happy Tuesday Friends!
I finished stitching With Thy Needle and Thread Snowbirds last night ..and finished it up today .
I used grey 28 count coffee/ tea dyed even weave .. and Classic Colorworks floss in the colors of Cherry Cobbler ..Barn Door .. cocoa bean .. mossy ..Ye Olde Gold ..Eggshell.. Fallen Leaves .. Hickory Sticks .. Wagon Wheel.. Hayride
 I mounted the stitching on sticky board .. then added another piece of sticky board covered in a plaid homespun .. then a red homespun torn ruffle behind the stitching ..I used a piece of barn wood to mount it on ( Chelsea cut it for me :) Then I attached a wood snowman I bought at a church rummage sale to the side for 25 cents I think :) .. I added some flocked greenery and a bow made from 2 kinds of ribbon ..

Love all your pieces & how cute you finish them! Can you tell me where you get your sticky board in all the different sizes? I've only seen 5x7, 8x10 & 11x14. Also, how do you determine what size cloth you need for each piece? All I see on the charts is the stitch count. Thank you for your help!
