The design was embroidered on sand-colored cotton evenweave, worked over 2 warp threads and 2 weft threads. This fabric particularly highlights the subtle gradients of the cacti and brings a beautiful softness to the final result. You can also create this design on 11 threads/cm linen fabric embroidered over 2 warp threads and 2 weft threads or on 5.5 stitches/cm Aida fabric. Natural, ecru, or sand-colored fabrics will enhance the botanical feel of the composition while highlighting the different shades of green.
