How to stitch it
- Find the centre of your fabric by folding it in half both ways.
- The PDF marks the chart centre with arrows; start there and count outwards.
- Use 2 strands on 14-count (3 on 11-count, 1–2 on 18-count).
- Stitch each colour’s larger areas first, then outlines, then single stitches.
