Pattern: Reims, Cross Stitch Creation

Champagne from Reims

In Reims, champagne is as much a part of the landscape as the historic monuments and the prestigious houses that have built its worldwide reputation. Here, every street seems to tell the story of unique expertise, passed down from generation to generation. From the immense cellars dug into the chalk to the vineyards stretching as far as the eye can see, everything evokes excellence and the French art of living.

This collection of two cross-stitch designs celebrates the world of champagne through two complementary facets. The first highlights the sparkling elegance of the famous champagne drink, while the second evokes Reims' heritage and its emblematic architecture. Together, they form a refined evocation of this region world-renowned for its exceptional wines.

Presented here on an apron, these motifs will bring a chic and gourmet touch to the kitchen. They can also be adapted onto tea towels, bags, tablecloths or decorative accessories for all gastronomy and oenology enthusiasts.

The designs are created on an apron with an integrated Aida band, specially designed for cross-stitch embroidery. You can also create these designs on 11-thread/cm linen fabric embroidered over 2 warp threads and 2 weft threads, or on 5.5-stitch/cm Aida fabric. Ecru, natural, or linen-colored fabrics particularly highlight the warm and refined shades of these compositions inspired by Champagne.

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