Description
Fabric: 36ct. Mocha by Weeks Dye Works
Sampler Size: 12 1/4” W x 11” H
Instructions:
The model was stitched with 2 strands of over-dyed floss, over 2 linen threads and 1 strand of over-dyed floss, over 1 linen thread.
A single strand of Weeks Dye Works Schneckley was used, in straight stitch, to work the feathers / crown on top of each bird’s head.
*I use as much of my floss as I possibly can, so depending on your thread usage and stitching style, you may need an additional skein each of WDW Hibiscus, WDW Onyx and WDW Schneckley.
