Cross-Stitch Sampler Pattern O'FEATHERS by Karen Kluba from Rosewood Manor, S-1241
This fun peacock design is fast to stitch! This 10 page booklet includes two smalls that can be finished as needle pillows or ornaments, plus a lovely small Welcome sampler.
DESIGN SIZE: 207 x 168 stitches
SUGGESTED FABRIC: 32ct. Antique White linen
FLOSS: Rosewood Manor's Sulky Thread Pack SKY-140 or one spool each of #712-0567,
#712-0568, #712-1005, # 712-1230, #712-1293, #712-1815 (DO NOT strand this thread!)
NOTE: This thread works well on 28ct & 32ct linen or 14ct & 16ct Aida, but not on higher counts.
Karen's style is refined, which you can witness in fine flowers and design elements. It creates gentle, lacey effect and elevates the whole piece to a higher level of needlework. A perfectly vintage look is achieved by hand-dyed linen and threads.
The piece uses mostly full cross stitches and backstitches, which are featured and explained in schematics in the booklet. The English Alphabet and all numbers are also provided in schemes to personalize your sampler.
Happy Stitching!
