Capture the breath-taking beauty of nature, creating a sense of calm and serenity with every stitch you make. There's something so magical about strolling through an untouched glade at this time of year. The dappled sunlight, casting its warm rays into cool shade, creates an air of tranquility - and the swathes of bluebells carpeting the ground are a sight to behold! All of this is beautifully captured in Amanda's delightful woodland scene. Experienced stitchers will love bringing this piece together, but it's also perfect for those looking to take on their first big project. In the same way the vibrant bluebells densely cover the forest floors, every square of aida in this scene is stitched, meaning it's packed full of stunning detail! There are only a few fractional stitches, but you'll also get to try blending, as you work similarly shaded threads threaded in the needle together. This may seem like a challenge, but you'll end up with a seasonal feast for the eyes that you can enjoy all year round! Stitching Time: Approx. 140 hours Type of Stitches: Cross stitch, fractionals, blending, half cross stitch, backstitch Ease of Stitching: Advanced Shopping List: - Zweigart 14-count white aida measuring 46x40cm (18" x 15-3/4") - Stranded cotton as listed in the key - Size 24 tapestry needle - Frame of your choice with a minimum aperture of 35x30cm (13-3/4" x 11-3/4")
