Chart: Les Planches de Deauville – Cross Stitch Creation

Elegance, seaside charm, and French art de vivre come together in this creation inspired by Deauville's famous "Planches". A true symbol of the Norman seaside resort, this mythical promenade has lined the beach and its iconic bathing cabins for over a century.

This cross-stitch pattern captures the refined atmosphere of Deauville with its colorful cabins, infinite perspective on the promenade, and a feminine silhouette enjoying a sunny day by the sea. A modern and luminous creation that immediately evokes holidays, long walks on the beach, and the timeless charm of the Normandy coast. Perfect for personalizing a beach bag, a travel tote, or summer decor, this pattern will appeal to all lovers of the sea, French heritage, and elegant destinations.

The pattern was stitched on a 5.5 stitches/cm Aida fabric, color 168 from DMC. This fabric provides a regular and precise result, particularly suited for large compositions with perspective effects and numerous details. You can also stitch this pattern on an 11-thread/cm linen fabric, stitched over 2 warp threads and 2 weft threads. The resulting dimensions will be identical. White, ecru, or very light blue fabrics blend particularly well with the soft, summery hues of this seaside scene.

The charts are printed with symbols and colors (DMC ref.) on 6 pages.
