NEW! Vintage Roses - Summer Cushion Cross Stitch Pattern by Tapestry Barn.
These 4 small flower motifs inspired by 18th and 19th century printed fabrics.
Each floral design is cross stitched in solid color tones, placed side by side as was the case with early textile prints, where the printing was done with one pass of color at a time.
The embroidery is very colorful with no less than 23 colors. the cross stitch patten covers the entire canvas, like tapestry. You could further work this motif in a needlepoint on canvas, using half stitch to tent stitch and 6 strands of embroidery floss.
For finishing, Tapestry Barn suggest mounting into a cushion. Instructions for mounting the cushoin are provided with the chart. The cushion measure 10 inch x 10 incn worked on 14 ct Aida.
Additional finishing ideas include stitching each small panel separately and mounting them in a small frame or on a square box cover.
