A cherub blows his trumpet and
carries s a garland of flowers. This cherub originally derives from an antique
Italian filet lace design and has now been adapted to
fit neatly into the sleeve of a Clippy Cover Girl Bag, but of course could be
used in a variety of decorative projects.
This
particular design is worked on a 10 Count plastic
canvas, in tent stitch.
This stitch is explained in the downloaded materials. The
panel measures 22cm (8.6 inches) by 29.5cm (11.7inches). These
single colour designs on 10 count plastic canvas are extremely easy 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.
