A classic birth sampler from Vervaco's sepia collection: a pair of little baby shoes worked in warm, softly shaded tones, with room to add the baby's name, date of birth and weight. The alphabet supplied with the chart lets you set the lettering exactly as you like, turning the piece into a personalised gift for a birth or a christening.
It is worked in counted cross stitch on Aida, with back stitch for the outlines and the lettering; the threads come ready sorted on the organizer, so there is no guessing which colour is which. A hoop or frame makes the stitching easier. The picture frame is not included: the finished work needs framing separately.
