Little House Needleworks continues their newest series Farmhouse Christmas with "Farm Folk." There are 9 designs in all in this new series and you can choose to stitch them individually or all together. The individual size is 63 stitches square (4-1/4" x 4-1/4") and if you stitch all 9 on one piece of fabric your stitch count will be 195 x 195 (13" x 13") leaving 3 squares between each block. If you add the free border it will measure 209 x 209 (13.93" x 13.93"). Go to Little House Needleworks web site and you can print the border right from there.
-The models are stitched on 30 count Natural Linen by Northern Cross (which has since gone out of business) and is now known as 30 count Portobello Linen. Any neutral color will look beautiful!
