The design is already painted on the large-hole canvas, so there is no counting involved: you simply stitch over the printed colours with thick acrylic yarn, which covers well and grows quickly. The wide holes make the work comfortable for anyone with little experience or for stitchers who prefer a canvas that is easy on the eyes.
The kit makes the front panel of the cushion cover only: the backing fabric and the pad have to be bought separately. Once the stitching is done, sew the front to a plain fabric back, add a zip or an overlap opening and slip in the pad. The finished piece can equally well be framed or used as a decorative panel.
