A cottage sliced open like a doll's house: in every room someone is sewing, knitting, painting or baking, surrounded by shelves of yarn, fabric and jars. It is a busy design full of tiny scenes to discover close up, with a great many colour changes, so it suits stitchers who already feel at home with counted cross stitch.
Back stitch outlines the details and French knots add the finishing touches, while the number line lets you add a date of your own. You will also want a hoop or frame and a small pair of scissors, and the frame is not included: the finished piece looks best mounted and framed as a picture.
