A ready-made, hemmed table runner with the design printed straight onto the fabric: you simply follow the coloured lines, with no counting involved, and the print washes out once the embroidery is finished. The range of stitches required, from french knots to long and short stitch for the shaded petals, makes it a project for stitchers with some experience of freehand embroidery.
Threads, needle and instructions are all included, along with the gold and silver metallic threads that highlight the cones and berries. A hoop and a pair of small embroidery scissors will make the work easier. Once finished, the runner dresses a festive table or a sideboard.
