Cut Thru’ Old MacDonald

The front wall of the house has been cut away, so you can see everything going on inside and around the farm: the cockerel crowing on the chimney, pigs in the bedroom, the cow and the horse in the downstairs rooms, and the animal noises lettered here and there in back stitch. A busy design with plenty of detail, enjoyable to stitch room by room.

It is worked on 16 count Aida, a fairly fine fabric: good light and, if you like, a magnifier make the small details much easier. Besides the kit you will need a hoop or frame, small scissors and, once finished, a frame for mounting, which is not included.
