Winter Cardinal Sampler Printed Cross Stitch Pattern
What a stunning winter themed sampler!
The cardinal is one of my favorite birds. I am fortunate to see them quite often in my backyard in central Maryland. I wanted to combine my love for cardinals, alphabets, and traditional wool needlework into one fun winter counted cross stitch sampler.
The printed counted cross stitch pattern includes:
- Cover page
- Back page with color key
- Black and white chart with symbols printed on 8.5 x 14 inch paper
- lovingly packaged in a clear 6 x 9 inch poly zipper bag
The model is stitched on a 9 x 13 inch piece of 32 count Wichelt Riviera Olive green linen with one strand of Wonderfil Ellana thread over two linen strands. This counted cross stitch sampler uses a 12 weight two-ply Merino wool and acrylic blend thread. The spool cards are an exclusive feature created just for Ardith Design by Wonderfil Threads. Try out this new thread today and stitch up this lovely winter sampler. If you prefer to stitch with DMC six-stranded cotton embroidery floss or Sulky's Filaine acrylic 12 weight thread, I have provided a color conversion for you to reference.
