Coastline View K-226 Counted Cross-Stitch Kit

Bring a sweeping Mediterranean coastline to life with this Merejka counted cross-stitch kit — Coastline View. Terraced vineyard rows curve down a green hillside toward a sandy cove, where red-roofed villas and dark cypress trees gather beside turquoise water and a rocky, lighthouse-topped headland. Stitched on Zweigart 16-count ecru Aida fabric using premium DMC threads in 40 carefully matched shades, the kit renders Merejka's photorealistic style in vivid, sun-warmed thread.

Why this kit: two chart versions — with and without backstitches — let you choose how much fine outline detail to add; the 40-shade DMC palette captures the gradual shift from vineyard green to deep sea blue; the panoramic composition makes an impressive, gallery-worthy finished piece.

Kit includes: Zweigart canvas, DMC threads, John James needles, and a colour chart.

Counted cross-stitch is worked by following the printed colour chart and placing each stitch on the gridded Aida fabric with the indicated DMC thread shade. Because both a with-backstitch and a without-backstitch chart are included, you can decide whether to add crisp outlines around the architecture and vine rows for extra definition. Work section by section until the design is complete, then frame it as striking wall art.

Finished size: 33.5x25 cm (13.19x9.84 in). An excellent project for experienced stitchers who appreciate the detail and depth of Merejka's scenic designs.
