Blackbird Designs

Barb Adams, half of the Blackbird Designs Duo passed away on July 4, 2021. The cross stitch and quilting community lost someone special to them.This site is dedicated to her memory.

I am one the administrators in the Fans of Blackbird Designs Facebook group. Bonnie Hutcherson is the other administrator. Marta, who lives in Spain is the group owner and administrator. The Fans of BBD and the BBD Lending Library are two totally separate groups.

If you wish to join the group, you must answer all three of the questions asked or you will not be admitted. The last one is agreeing to the group rules.

I was first introduced to Blackbird Designs in 2014 and they have quickly become my very favorite designers. Blackbird Designs is actually two designers - Alma Allen and Barb Adams who are the ladies behind Blackbird Designs. Barb and Alma began their company in 1999 to share a love of color, pattern, and fiber. Sometime around 2003, they added counted cross stitch to their line of products.

Many of their older charts are now out of print and go for very high prices on ebay.
