Chart: Invitation to the Show, Cross Stitch Design

Like an invitation carefully preserved in a keepsake box, this creation evokes the elegance of past performances, opera evenings, and social events where every detail was meticulously prepared. Old pages, yellowed sheet music, delicate pearls, refined gloves, and embroidered flowers compose a romantic universe imbued with poetry and nostalgia.

This original staging blends embroidery, antique objects, and decorative elements to create a true miniature theater. Presented in a re-imagined and decorated crate, this composition becomes a unique decorative object that will naturally find its place in a romantic interior, a creative workshop, or a corner dedicated to beautiful collections.

The motifs were embroidered on DMC 11 threads/cm ivory linen fabric 3865, worked over 2 warp threads and 2 weft threads. This creation can also be made on 12 threads/cm linen fabric or on 5.5 stitches/cm Aïda fabric for similar dimensions.

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