The woodland background is already printed in full colour on the Aida, so you stitch only the girl, her lantern and the flowers in the foreground, following the chart and counting the stitches. It is a quick way to get a painterly result, with a little back stitch for the outlines, small lazy daisies and a single French knot.
The threads come pre-sorted by colour, so you can start straight away; you will only need a hoop or frame and a small pair of scissors. The tall format suits framing, though the frame is not included. A good choice for anyone who loves the Gorjuss illustrations by Santoro and wants a mid-sized piece to hang or give as a gift.
