General Information: Stitched using 2 threads of floss over 2 threads of fabric. A total of 7 colors of Dinky-Dyes hand-dyed silk floss, 6 colors of Mill Hill Beads, and 2 colors of Sullivans floss (for backstitching and attaching beads) were used in the model.
NOTE: Sullivans/DMC/and Anchor comparable colors to make stitching this design more affordable are provided. However, it is very important to keep in mind that Dinky-Dyes Silks are variegated in color, some more than others. Although color comparables are provided in other floss lines (Sullivans/DMC/and Anchor), these are “best match” alternatives. Stitching with silk is a wonderful experience. For the best results, I highly recommend using the silks.
Fabric: Stitched on 28ct Petals Cashel Linen by Picture This Plus.
Stitch Area: 140w X 140h
Stitch Count: 135w X 135h
