This design is charted for stitching using 1 thread over 1 thread of the fabric weave. Fabric 25-ct and higher is recommended. A single colour of thread is required - floss, silk, anything you choose...
The model was stitched on 32-ct Parchment Lugana Color Blooms from The Blended Needle (www.theblendedneedle.com) using Kreinik Soie d'Alger 4115 by Beth Allan of Dartmouth, Canada. While a hand-dyed fabric has been used for this model, it is NOT required to stitch the design. The design is recommended for evenweave or linen.
