Description
From Paulette, the designer from Plum Street Samplers:
This is a companion to Autumn Hill, featuring one of the “hill sisters” standing next to her patriotic garden flag. (I have one of these in my back yard, but the wind always flips it upside down, which is maddening at times.) Her skirt is worked in regular cross stitch, with easy long-stitched stars scattered over it. You’ll find that this model was worked entirely in DMC, which was refreshing to design with!
Stitch count: 94w x 126h
Fabric used: 36 ct. Country Mocha by Zweigart
Threads used: DMC in 310, 646, 680, 730, 924, 950, 3012, 3021, 3811, 3858, 3859, and Ecru.
Trim used: This was from Joy Hayward’s personal stash, so there are no specifics.
Stitches used: Cross stitch over two threads, cross stitch over one thread (the stars on the flag and surrounding bits), straight-stitch, and long-stitch.
