Bright Sunflowers Counted Cross-Stitch Kit by Abris Art AH-159

Stitch Bright Sunflowers, a floral counted cross-stitch kit by Abris Art — three golden sunflowers on tall green stems glow against a black background, framed by delicate grey blackwork panels and borders. Worked in 17 colours of embroidery floss, it's bold, modern and full of sunshine.

A little stitcher's folklore: sunflowers turn to follow the sun, and folk tradition makes them a symbol of loyalty, warmth and good luck — some say planting them by the door brings good fortune in. Stitchers say a sunflower on the wall keeps a home facing the light, even on grey days.

Why this kit: if you want a floral with real impact, the tall, narrow format and black background make this one stand out on any wall. With just 17 colours it's very achievable, and the blackwork panels add a lovely extra technique. A cheerful gift for sunflower lovers.

Kit includes: 14-count cotton Aida canvas, a cross stitch needle, 17 colours of cotton floss on an organizer card, a printed symbol chart, and instructions in 8 languages.

Counted cross stitch is worked by following the symbol chart and placing each cross on the Aida grid with the matching floss colour. Stitch the sunflowers and stems, then the blackwork panels and border.

Finished size: 21×48 cm (8.27×18.9 in). Striking floral wall art for a hallway or kitchen.
