“Stitching all things vintage “
Almost all of the designs are created without using fractional stitches - no half or quarter stitches
Each page of your chart will have a protective finish, which you can mark in pencil , a front page with picture, and a separate sheet listing the amount of thread required.
Many of the designs are between 140 and 170 stitches tall, so they often will fit a 10” x 8” or 12 x 10 frame, but they do vary - the Art Nouveau designs in particular are larger to accommodate the detail.
About the Designs
The finish protects from damp, dirt and dog-ear! Pencil marks are easily removed with an eraser, identifying mistakes, or just looking good for using again.
Pages of the chart are held together by paper fastener, enabling use of one page at a time, avoiding confusion when stitching.
