Chart: Country Curtain, Cross Stitch Creation

Patching, darning, mending... behind these antiquated words lies a charming way to conceal small imperfections. On a finely openwork white cotton café curtain, we have multiplied the application of different embroidered pieces for a rustic result. If you like the idea, try it on a family tablecloth or an old sheet.
