Citrus Notes Oranges Counted Cross-Stitch Kit by Abris Art AHM-076

Stitch Citrus Notes, a counted cross-stitch kit by Abris Art — a cluster of ripe, glowing oranges hangs from a branch with glossy green leaves and delicate pink blossoms. Worked on 100% cotton Zweigart Aida in 17 colours of floss, with Preciosa beads.

A little stitcher's folklore: oranges were once a precious gift for luck and plenty, and in Chinese tradition they bring wealth and happiness; orange blossom was worn by brides for a happy marriage. Stitchers say an orange branch in the kitchen keeps the home sunny and well-fed.

Why this kit: if you love fresh, bright designs, these oranges are a joy to stitch and quick to finish. The hoop is included and doubles as a frame, and it's beginner-friendly. A cheerful gift for cooks and a sunny touch for any kitchen.

Kit includes: 100% cotton Zweigart Aida canvas, an embroidery hoop, a cross stitch needle, 17 colours of cotton floss on an organizer card, Preciosa beads and a beading needle, 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 oranges, then the leaves and blossoms.

Finished size: 17×17 cm (6.69×6.69 in). Sunny kitchen decor and a cheerful gift.
