The Iris' Paintbox folk embroidery kit is inspired by an embroidered table scarf a friend purchased from a needleworker in the Agrinio area of mainland Greece in the 1970s which was in turn inspired by a Greek folk costume. Its vibrant color palette sets a lively rainbow of hues within a traditional terra cotta and black framework for a truly striking and unconventional design. Shown worked as a table runner, it would also make a gorgeous cushion cover by stitching less repeats of the design. Kit includes: 26ct 100% cotton Traditional Groundcloth in natural, DMC 100% cotton embroidery floss, John James size 24 needle, full color charts and instructions.
Finished size (exclusive of finishing): 14-1/2 x 26”
Stitch count: 190 x 341sts/18831 cross stitches/20886 backstitches
Please note: the drawn thread hem finishing shown in the photos has to be done after the design is stitched; the fabric in your kit will come with the raw edges serged so they don't unravel while you are stitching.
