R.I.P. Paws - Cross Stitch Kit

This memorial piece for a loved, furry family member is unique to Rogue Stitchery! The kit is a do-it-yourself / DIY, but the Aida fabric has been pre-sewn with the rainbow trim.  Once stitched, the piece can be hung on a wall or used as a bookmark. 

Contents: Pre-sewn Aida fabric in 14- or 18-count; Size 26 needle; DMC floss; large-print, black-and-white chart; and brief instructions for cross-stitches and back-stitches. Plastic clips in a matching or complementary color with DMC floss are available for a minimal, additional charge. 

PREPARED, TRIMMED FABRIC:

 Each trimmed fabric is individually crafted and made using Charles Craft’ Gold Standard Aida cloth.  An Aida piece is cut to size, based on the fabric count.  The higher the fabric count, the smaller the stitch.  The 14-count size measures 3” x 9”.  The 18-count size measures 2 ½” x 7”.  Both sizes have approximately 26-28 x 120 in stitching area.  Since each is individually made, slight variations can occur. 

 Each piece of trim is made by hand using cotton “quilt” fabric and becomes a double-fold bias tape measuring ½” inch.  It is then sewn onto each of the long sides of the Aida fabric.  Each end of the handmade, bias tape is sealed to prevent fraying.

 HANGING THE STITCHED DESIGN:

 Hanging clips can be purchased as an add-on with this kit for an additional $2.  If selected, you will be provided with two plastic clips and a rope of DMC floss.  Easy assembly instructions are included.
