ONL 174

First design in a new series of rich and “splendid” patterns. I was inspired by antique silk brocade fabrics – the richness of color, the use of metallic threads, interwoven with the silks, the dimension of different weaving techniques – all this I tried to capture for this first one. I plan on having two designs for each color – one dark, one lighter.

There are also green versions of the Splendids available!

Here you can feed your inner queen with a glorious use of hand-dyed threads and metallics, diverse beads, and Swarovski crystals. The Special Stitches which are used besides the normal cross stitch give a nice texture and showcase wonderfully the flow of color of the variegated threads.

Size: The mere design size is 119 x 183 stitches.

Recommended Fabric: 16/ 32 or 14/28 count cream, or black… Light blue…
