ONL 177 – Hortus Venenum – The Poison Garden

There is indeed a real Poison Garden in this world – it is situated in Alnwick in the UK. Spooky and somber it cultivates all or at least many of the most poisonous plants in the world. I was very intrigued when I saw this (online) and made myself a note…

Choose the color of your fabric

Please note that this are not genuine fabric colors of any manufactuer. The colors have been hand-chosen by me, as they represent an array of colors which act as a decent, though emphasizing background for my intricate design. I strongly recommend to avoid any bold colored and/or mottled so-called "hand dyed" fabrics. Your months-long work on details and specialitles will be lost in any agitated background.

Stitching on another fabric other than white requires changing some yarn color. This will NOT be included in the design chart instructions!

Each arch contains a poisonous plant – so 12 in total with their botanical names backstitched in Latin.

There are lots of details in the entire design – and lots of Special Stitches too. Tiny over-one parts, not too large, no worries! Use of various threads, weights, fibers… beads, crystals, and such stuff.

The overall size will be 348 x 348 stitches – so it fits into the range of the other gardens like Herbarium, Rosarium, Tinctorium, Pomarium…
