A storybook landscape in bright colours: a little wooden house built in a large tree whose canopy is made of hot-air balloons, with striped flowering hills and more balloons drifting across the sky. It is worked in counted cross stitch on Aida, with some back stitch outlines to sharpen the details.
The large-square chart and the pre-sorted threads on the organizer keep things straightforward even with limited experience, despite the wide range of shades. All you need to add is a hoop or frame and a small pair of scissors; the frame shown in the photo is not included. The tall format suits a picture for the wall.
