Engraver’s Chart
Hello From Liz Mathews
Within this chart you have 10 full alphabets and 2 number sets- each one stitched in a different font! Also included are a handful of sweet motifs that can all be used to create your own fun designs. This pattern was intended not only to be stitched as shown in the model, but also to be a helpful tool for customizing your own creations!
The Engravers Chart was stitched on 40 count Stars Hollow linen from R & R Reproductions using one strand of Gloriana “Coffee Bean” silk thread over two threads of linen which is represented by the O symbol. Alternatively, DMC 3371 could be used. It is worked entirely in cross stitches.
To finish as a hanging chart: Both sides were left raw and slightly frayed, but sewn with thread to match the linen to prohibit fraying beyond the desired point. The top and the bottom were attached to old wooden strips with a combination of staples and glue to create a “school chart” look. Small metal hooks were screwed into the top piece of wood and twine was used to hang the chart from the wall.
