Fabric:
Stitched on 28ct “Crystal Pampas” Lugana hand-dyed by Picture This
Plus. Lugana was specifically used because it tends to dye just a little
lighter than linen. I was trying to achieve a lighter shade of this
particular Picture This Plus color. The color came out perfect on the
Lugana. Please keep in mind that if you choose to stitch it on Linen (in
the same color), it will be darker.
Stitch Area: 240w X 330h

Area: 17″w X 23-3/8″h.

upon the tension of your stitching it is possible that you may need a
3rd skein.
