This panel has been designed to
fit neatly into the sleeve of a Clippy Cover Girl Bag, but of course it could be
used in a variety of decorative projects. The
rose motif is the same as the one used in the Single
Rose Cushion and is based on a design I found in an antique needlework
magazine, dating from around 90 years ago. This
particular design is worked on a 7 Count plastic
canvas, in cross stitch.
This stitch is explained in the downloaded materials. Stitching in cross
stitch on this plastic canvas gives a raised effect which gives the rose a
pleasing slightly three dimensional appearance. The
panel measures 22cm (8.6 inches) by 29.5cm (11.7inches). These
single colour designs on 7 count plastic canvas are extremely easy and quick to
work and so are very suitable for complete beginners. There is no background to
be stitched, just the central motif and so a design like this can be completed
in a few evenings. Once
the design is finished a coloured sheet of card, material or foam is placed
behind the canvas to provide the contrasting colour. You can change these sheets
from time to time to suit your mood or to match your outfit. It is also fun to
decorate the finished needlework further by stitching pieces of old lace,
buttons, or other accessories to the canvas, to make your own original work of
art! The download below
contains a chart to follow and full instructions for making this item. The Clippy
bag and plastic canvas are
not included in the download, but can be purchased from our shop.
