In Bloom

    In the fullness of summer, gardens burst into bloom. Walking into the garden out of a cool, dark, indoor world, the bright colours in the silvered sunlight can both hurt and delight the eyes. Bring these flowers inside and you will have colourful blooms all year round

    The large kit is worked with Appleton Brothers tapestry wools in counted cross stitch on Zweigart 7 h.p.i. canvas. The small kit is worked with 2 strands of Appleton Brothers crewel wool in counted cross stitch on Zweigart 10 h.p.i. canvas. The design is worked from the easy-to-follow colour chart provided.

    Working with tapestry wools on the larger 7 h.p.i. canvas (large size) gives a beautiful chunky, hand-made finish. The crewel wools worked on the 10 h.p.i. (small size) give an elegant, smoother finish more associated with traditional tapestry.
