A tablecloth that comes ready to stitch: the design is printed straight onto the ecru fabric, so there is no counting involved and you simply follow the coloured squares, which disappear in the wash. With only five shades the work moves along quickly, even over a large surface, which makes it a good choice for a first big project.
The edges are already hemmed: once the stitching is done, a gentle wash and a press on the wrong side are all it takes. A frame or hoop helps keep the fabric even as you move across the design. Finished, it dresses a table or a sideboard and makes a seasonal gift.
