Gorjuss: Be Kind To Yourself

A Gorjuss girl with long brown hair stands among sunflowers while heart-shaped balloons float around her, the whole scene set inside a blue and pink arched border with the Santoro and gorjuss signatures at the top.

The fabric comes printed in full colour, so the background guides the stitching and makes it easier to keep your place, although the chart is still worked stitch by stitch. Alongside the cross stitch there is a little back stitch for the outlines and one French knot, while the buttons and beads add texture to the details. A hoop or frame is useful while you stitch, and a frame for the finished piece is chosen separately.
