Traditionally Blackwork is stitched on white fabric with black threads. Janet has given a contemporary feel with sea green fabric and multi colour threads. Beads also make the filling designs stand out. This is a great design to practice 10 different filling stitches.
Even weave fabric such as Aida or Linen can be used to stitch on 28 count or #14 count fabric. When choosing the colour fabric and threads you are going to use, remember to have quite a contrast shade between the fabric and thread so stitching will show well.
8 large pages of stitch diagrams and instructions are included. There are 10 stitched fillings in total. All fabric and threads listed are found easily internationally. There is a full comprehensive stitch glossary and comprehensive stitching instructions. Instructions suitable for those new to this style of embroidery but have had some experience with a needle and thread before. All instructions include metric and imperial measurements.
Design size is approximately on #14 Aida: 24 x 13 cm (9 1/2 x 5 inches) You can enlarge the design lines of the Seahorse if you wish it larger. All prices are in New Zealand dollars. See the exchange rate here
