Pattern: Friezes and Medallions, Cross-Stitch Design

The timeless elegance of antique cross-stitch friezes.

Inspired by traditional samplers and ancient ornaments, this superb sampler brings together a refined collection of geometric friezes, floral medallions and delicate birds embroidered in elegant red monochrome. A charming creation that evokes the needlework of yesteryear and the expertise of traditional embroiderers.

The different motifs can be embroidered together as a large decorative sampler or separately to personalize cushions, pouches, household linen or small frames. Each frieze adds a graphic and refined touch in an authentic and timeless spirit.

The contrast of deep red on the natural fabric highlights the finesse of the details and emphasizes the delicately retro character of this composition. An ideal embroidery to bring warmth, elegance and a chic country spirit to your home.

The model was embroidered on a natural-colored linen Aida fabric, 5.5 stitches/cm. Can also be made on 11 or 12 thread/cm linen fabric for a finer and more delicate finish. Natural, ecru or string shades particularly enhance the elegance of the red monochrome.

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

Design size: 160 stitches wide × 130 stitches high; on the fabric used, the embroidery measures approximately 29.5 × 24 cm.
