Happy Tree
Lesley Teare 2025 Stitch Along - Subscription
CROSS STITCH PATTERN READY TO DOWNLOAD, DESIGNED BY Lesley Teare Designs

Available as a subscription, Lesley Teare's exciting new SAL will be released monthly in 10 parts throughout 2025. It features a tree that will gradually fill with life, a process that we can garantee will prove a lot of fun, as your fabric fills each month with a new surprise, full of rich detail. A new cross stitch chart will be made available each month. 

The chart is mostly cross stitch, with areas outlined in backstitch, a couple of French knots as well as some fractional stitches for detail. As you can see from the supplies list, with no fewer than 31 colors, the design is very colorful. Extra care has been taken so each chart part is easy to identify and stitch, coming in two separate steps, one with cross stitch only, and one with the finishing stitches (backstitch and French knots). An overall page showing the entire fabric ensures that the design parts are stitched in exactly the right place, starting from the center. 

The piece is stitched on any white fabric of your choice, be it Aida, evenweave or linen.
