The Teaparty

A scene from another era: two girls sitting on a veranda among flowers and lace curtains, pouring tea into china cups while the teddy bear joins the party. The many shades in the hair and the dresses make for plenty of colour changes, so the design suits stitchers who are already comfortable with counted cross stitch and with following a chart.

Everything needed for the stitching is in the kit, threads included: you only need a hoop or frame and a small pair of scissors. The picture frame is not included: once finished, the piece is best mounted and framed as a picture, the natural choice for a design of this size.
