The Bookcase
CROSS STITCH PATTERN READY TO DOWNLOAD, DESIGNED BY GALLIANA
A Sampler featuring a collection of books and fine objects, displayed in a glass case, part of Galliana's fun collection of customizable cross stitch charts designed to be stitched in any color combination you fancy.
In the model pictured, the bookshelf is worked in a single color of overdyed silk thread from Dinky Dyes, while the books inside the shelf all come in solid coordinated colors. As a result each item stand out individually. You will notice it especially for the books lying horizontally and visible through both doors.
As for all Galliana designs, this chart is monochrome and can be stitched using any count of fabric & floss of your choice. It's up to you how the stitched piece will turn out as you can truly personalise the design either stitching it all in one colour, maybe use two contrasting colours, variegated flosses or even a whole range of different colours.
A Guide to Colors is included with the chart with suggestions of different ways to apply colors to the design.
If stitching with one colour on 28 count over 2 using 2 strands, you will require approx 13 skeins of 8metre DMC or equivalent and the design area will be approx 15” x 19.5”.
