Nicky Leeman of
Country Cottage Needleworks
is releasing a new 9-part winter series called Frosty Forest starting November 2013 and wrapping up in July 2014.
Each design is stitched on Belfast (32 count) Pearl Grey Zweigart linen. Each section is a stitch count of 65x65 (4x4 on 32 count). If you plan to stitch them all as ornaments there are 2 options - Stitcher's Half (36x27) of the fabric will get you 12 9x9 cuts, which means you can frame the individual pieces. If you are doing just ornaments a Stitcher's Quarter (18x27) will get you 12 - 6x6 cuts.
Nicky has created a map for the 9 designs if you want to stitch them as a single design. If you're planning to stitch them with this orientation you'll need an 18x18 piece of fabric.
You are welcome to join our
Frosty Forest
Yahoo Group
for stitching encouragement and the company of others working on this fun project.

Zweigart
Pearl Gray comes in
Belfast
(32 count),
Edinborough
(36 count) and
Newcastle
(40 count). The design calls for 32 count but you can stitch on any of the counts. If you would prefer a hand-dyed fabric we suggest
Lakeside Linens
Tarnished Silver (Regular or Vintage) or Quicksilver (Regular or Vintage). The Vintage
Lakeside Linens
colors will give you more mottling, which could be nice for the open background. We only list the 32 count options for these fabrics below but you can order a SQ or other yardage of these colors in 28, 36 or 40 count through our
online catalog
:
32 count
36 count
40 count
Stitched as a 3x3 grid
Design 12.5 x 12.5

3.5" margin

A 18x27 piece will provide enough to cut them apart into 6x6 pieces
A 36x27 piece will provide enough to cut them apart into 9x9 pieces.
You can sign up for the charts, linen, thread and/or button as you require.
We will charge you only for the items as we ship them.

Items below are for each part of the design. You can choose what you need for a specific section. You might want the buttons, or some of the threads, but not all. We will send these with their respective chart release. The thread list is cummulative so if it was used in a previous part we have not added in the list again. You should have enough to use one skein of each color the series requires (the full list is above).
