Happy 4th of July

In celebration of Independance Day I wanted to share this pattern with all my American friends.

I had designed this Stars & Stripes Pin for a Make-It & Take-It workshop I ran one year at the Stitching Jubilee in Lancaster, PA

The pin is stitched in the Continental / Tent stitch with 3 strands on a 22ct. canvas.  If cross stitched 1 over 1 on 22ct Hardanger fabric the finished design size will be the same.  Click here for the pattern and fringe instructions.

At the time I was lucky to find these red & white stiped beads, and with 13 blue stars they were perfect for the beaded fringe.  I still have some of these kits remaining.  The kits include the Chart with Finishing Instructions, Petit Point Instructions, 22ct Cordova (petit point) canvas, Anchor Threads & Nymo Beading Thread, Red & white striped beads, Blue Star beads, Matt board & red felt, Bar Pin, and Needles.
If anyone is interested in purchasing a kit, please email me at the shop, questions@gittas.com
Have a great day !!!
