Cross stitch kit Chenonceau silhouette

The silhouette of the Chenonceau Château spanning the River Cher is so easily recognisable that I couldn’t resist putting it in the large Museums and Heritage embroidery.
This cross stitch cushion kit is derived from the larger model.
It reminds me of the architectural designs representing the evolution of the Château over time which can be found on the first floor in the Estampes Exhibition Room.
Size of motif: 190 stitches wide by 101 stitches high.
When embroidered on 12 count (per cm) linen, the finished project measures 31.7 x 16.8cm.
Size of finished cushion: 36 x 21cm.
This kit contains:
- full-colour pattern chart printed on large A3 sheets of paper;
- one 40 x 23cm of slate coloured linen embroidery fabric;
- 2 Retors du Nord embroidery floss cards in colour 2086;
- 40 x 25cm 100% cotton "indienne" fabric in blue tones.
Depending on our stocks, this fabric may vary, but trust us, the end result will always be lovely.
Presented in a lovely Sajou cardboard re-usable box.
The embroidery pattern chart is also available here.
