Colors I love: Ruby Red Collection
COUNTED CROSS STITCH CHART BY  MARIE-ANNE RETHORET-MELIN



This chart features a biscornu, a scissor case and scissor fob all stitched in Ruby Red, one of the Marie-Anne Réthoret-Mélin's favorite floss colors. The scissor fob pattern can also double up a floss-tag to help identify your threads.

The particular hue, Color 4210 from the DMC Color variations range, gently varies from a lighter to a darker tone. It's a real treat to watch the color develop on the fabric as you stitch along.

Together with your chart you will receive a free tutorial by Marie-Anne Réthoret-Mélin, taking you step by step through the process of making a fine scissor case with inner lining. Assembly is very easy, starting with a square piece that is lined then whipstitched into the triangular shape with virtually "no sewing" involved.

This chart was stitched on printed Aida from DMC's Impression range, with a floral print background. The printed fabric gently blends with the stitching creating a beautiful effect.
