Cross stitch chart - Toiles de Jouy - French heritage

This spectacular cross stitch pattern chart was conceived by Frédérique Crestin-Billet. It was inspired by the history of Oberkampf’s Toile de Jouy production in Jouy-en-Josas. The composition of different elements represent the different stages of printing the fabrics and give an overview of the different productions from the factory.

Size of motif: 345 x 342 points.
This embroidery represents around 250 hours of work.

This pattern chart is presented in large poster format measuring 68 x 80cm, which makes it easy to follow in spite of the comlexity of the motif. The poster is printed in matt so you can write on it and mark all the references you may need. On the back of the poster you will find all the explanations for the embroidery and the historical texts. To get as close as possible to a “fabric effect”, you should follow certain instructions.
Presented in a Sajou folder.
