The Stitching Shelves
CROSS STITCH PATTERN READY TO DOWNLOAD, DESIGNED BY GALLIANA
This Sampler part of Galliana's fun collection of customizable cross stitch charts designed to be stitched in any color combination you fancy.
For example, ths stitched piece (pictured) was stitched in on 18 count Zweigart Navy Aida. This makes the motif stand out against the dark fabric background.
The shelves hold an antique sewing machine, several shapes of sewing baskets and boxes, some books as well as plenty of thread reels, a scissort pot, some glue and even an ort pot holding leftover threads.
The square design could be fitted onto a cushion cover, and grace your favorite armchair. It would also make a perfect gift for a freidn who loves needlework.
As with 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 12 skeins of 8metre DMC or equivalent and the design area will be approx 17.25” x 17.5”
