Description
This design was inspired by the Tulip craze in Holland in 1636 and 1637, a period when the newly prosperous Dutch bought and sold rare tulips whose bulbs yielded spotted and striped flowers. The Dutch became so enamored with Tulips that the price of some highly coveted bulbs increased 1200%! Some bulbs even cost the equivalent of a house or what a skilled craftsman made in a year! But, almost as quickly as it started, the Tulip craze abruptly ended (and the beauty of tulips could be enjoyed by everyone for a song!).
This is the digital – pdf – version of Tulipmania*. Once you purchase the pattern an email will be sent to you that will contain a link to download a pdf copy of the design. Nothing will be mailed to you.
Pattern purchase includes a pdf with the following:
- a pattern cover page
- an instruction page detailing the threads, linen, and other relevant information
- a pattern in both color and black and white
- a pattern of the full cross stitch pattern on one page that you can use on your phone or tablet for digital reading
*If you prefer a physical copy of this chart, please see the cross stitch pattern section of my shop. If you have any questions, please let me know prior to purchase as I do not offer refunds on digital content or cross-stitch patterns.
