Chart: Pretty Bouquets, Cross Stitch Creation

The timeless charm of English porcelain meets the delicate beauty of garden flowers in this delightful creation by Hélène Le Berre. A floral teapot or an elegant cup overflowing with freshly picked bouquets, each motif evokes refined tea times, family homes, and the sweetness of sunny days.

Designed by Hélène Le Berre for Création Point de Croix, this composition subtly plays with floral details and the elegant curves of antique tableware. The soft shades of the flowers stand out harmoniously against the grey-blue denim fabric, bringing a lot of freshness to the whole. Created separately or combined in a single decoration, these two motifs offer many staging possibilities and are particularly well suited for making cushions, pictures, or decorative accessories.

The model was embroidered on a grey-blue denim linen fabric, 12 threads/cm, worked over 2 warp threads and 2 weft threads. This fabric highlights the luminous colors of the flowers while enhancing the romantic charm of the work.

This creation can also be made on a DMC linen fabric, 11 threads/cm, embroidered over 2 warp threads and 2 weft threads, or on an Aida fabric, 5.5 stitches/cm, to achieve slightly more generous dimensions while facilitating the embroidery work.

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