Stitching notes
- Stitch the vine first as a guide line, then place leaves and flowers from it.
Use two strands on 14-count Aida and one or two on 18-count. Find the centre of your fabric by folding it in quarters and start from the centre of the chart; the bold lines are every ten stitches.
Buying fabric? Add at least 3 inches on every side for framing: the cross stitch calculator works it out.
