Spring Roses Bouquet Counted Cross-Stitch Kit by Abris Art AHM-057

Stitch Spring Roses, a floral counted cross-stitch kit by Abris Art — a lush bouquet of deep red and soft pink roses with fresh green leaves and delicate sprigs, stitched in a painterly watercolour style on white Aida. 19 colours of embroidery floss give the petals rich, velvety shading.

A little stitcher's folklore: in the language of flowers, red roses speak of love and pink roses of gratitude and admiration — so this bouquet says both. Needleworkers say roses stitched for someone never wilt, and neither does the feeling behind them. Stitch it for your valentine, your mum or your best friend.

Why this kit: if you love classic florals, this bouquet is a joy to watch bloom under your needle, one shade at a time. It's small enough to finish in a few evenings, the hoop is included and doubles as a frame, and it suits beginners. A romantic, forever-fresh gift.

Kit includes: 100% cotton Aida canvas, a cross stitch needle, 19 colours of embroidery floss on an organizer, a printed symbol chart, an embroidery hoop, 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. Build up each rose shade by shade, then the leaves and sprigs.

Finished size: 15×15 cm (5.91×5.91 in). Romantic floral decor and a thoughtful Valentine's, Mother's Day or birthday gift.
