I just LOVE these colours together don’t you!? Remember, you can find all the needlepoint stitch samples in the series listed in the right sidebar.
I made this one up and it measures approximately 2 inches square. The corners are stitched using a scotch cross which I found online. I used size 5 perle cotton colour #166 – a gorgeous blend of red violets and purples. The outer border is a diagonal pattern using size 5 perle cotton, colour #109. The center are waffle stitches in size 5 perle cotton colour #166 and also colour #158.
I always find it interesting how the colour runs stitch up in these needlepoint samples. I am never quite sure so it is a pleasant surprise and not always what I might expect. So, are you enjoying the series? Hope so. More needlepoint next week along with some crazy quilting. Have a great weekend.
