Chart: An Afternoon at the Beach, Belle & Boo, Cross Stitch Creation

The sun shines brightly, the sea sparkles, and the warm sand invites the most wonderful summer adventures. On the beach, Belle and Boo fully enjoy an afternoon outdoors, diligently building a magnificent sandcastle. A simple and precious moment that evokes childhood memories, seaside holidays, and long summer days.

Imagined by Belle & Boo, this sweet creation delicately captures the magic of beach games. Armed with her spade and bucket, little Belle shapes her castle while her faithful companion Boo curiously watches the treasures discovered in the sand. The luminous shades of the sky, sea, and beach bring freshness and lightness to this tender and timeless scene.

The design was embroidered on an 11-thread/cm white linen fabric, worked over 2 warp threads and 2 weft threads. This light fabric perfectly highlights the soft seaside colours and the numerous details of the pattern.

This creation can also be made on a DMC 11-thread/cm linen fabric embroidered over 2 warp threads and 2 weft threads, or on a 5.5-stitch/cm Aida fabric, to maintain the same dimensions while simplifying the embroidery work.

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