Silent Night Gift

A Christmas scene by Marcello Corti, built up one drill at a time: the design is printed on the canvas as a grid of adhesive symbols, you pick up each round drill with the wax-tipped stylus and set it in place. The work is repetitive and soothing, needs no stitching experience and can be picked up and put down whenever you like.

Everything you need to work is in the box, including tray, wax and stylus; a frame is not included. With a panel this large it helps to unroll the canvas on a big flat surface and work in sections, peeling back the film only over the area in progress. Once finished, have it framed or mounted on a stretcher as a decoration to bring out every Christmas.
