Description
Delightful sprays of blue cornflowers alternate with deep green cypress trees, a common motif in Mediterranean embroidery featured in the Delphian Cornflower folk embroidery kit. I’ve arranged this charming floral design as a mirrored border, but you could easily use the designs in a variety of ways: the floral sprays or cypress trees as single motifs for a smaller project such as a child’s dress or pincushion, the small center border on a towel or small bag, or re-orient the design as a double-ended table runner. 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): 5-1/2 x 12-1/4”
Stitch count:79×171 sts/5264 cross stitches
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.
