Type: Cross Stitch Kits

The Blue Hellebore cross stitch folk embroidery kit is one of my favorite kinds of folk embroidery - a single small motif, rotated and repeated to create both the graceful central floral medallions and the intricate meander border that frames them. The paradox of it is part of the pleasure: it looks complex, yet it stitches up very simply, in a single shade of blue outlined with black that gives the finished piece a striking, graphic quality. I also really love hellebores, which are native to Romania where stylized floral motifs like this one have been used for folk embroidery and folk costume for centuires.

What you'll make: A 13 x 22" table runner or bolster cushion (lining for bolster cushion not included in kit)

Kit Includes: One 15 x 24" piece of 28ct European Linen in Flax
DMC 6-strand embroidery floss
John James size 24 cross stitch needle
Full color chart and instructions

Stitch count: 13,168 cross stitches, 8,640 backstitches (121 x 250 stitch area)
