Description
The stitcher who completed these beautiful counted cross stitch pieces was exceedingly talented.She (or he) did an outstanding job stitching these nine (9) finished blocks!
I am selling them individually at a very reasonable price of each and FREE insured shipping! I am also offering a 10% discount if you purchase more than one.
There are 4 different patterns--- Interlocking Kaleidoscope Star (2), Dresden plate (2), multi-petal flower (2), and Pennsylvania Dutch hex sign (3).
Each of the 9 squares is approximately 13”x 13”.
The worked area differs from about 9” square to 9 ¾” square.
I am a knitter but have dabbled in quilting, needlepoint and simple embroidery.
However, I have not tried my hand at counted cross stitch.
So, I hope that I am describing the materials used in these blocks correctly.
I believe the designs are stitched in cotton floss on 14-count ivory Aida-cloth.
It obviously took hours and hours of tedious stitching to craft these beautiful pieces.
If you factor that into the cost of the kit itself, you know that these 9 blocks are very reasonably priced!
(Note:
One Jack Dempsey kit, which these seem to resemble, runs about + tax + shipping.)
There is no discoloration, no staining, and no missing thread.
These blocks are ready for you to turn them into an heirloom creation!
These would be wonderful added into a quilt, made into pillows, used to upholster chair seats, or any number of wonderful projects!
