Pure Flame Counted Cross Stitch Kit by Merejka K-243

Stitch Pure Flame with this Merejka counted cross-stitch kit — a fantasy portrait pairs a fierce blue-green dragon with a woman whose fiery red hair and floral crown blaze against the dragon's cool scales. Worked on Zweigart 16-count ecru Aida fabric using premium DMC threads in 37 carefully matched shades, this fantasy design is rich in color, texture, and dramatic contrast.

Why this kit: the collision of warm red hair against cool dragon scales gives striking, high-contrast color blocking; 37 DMC shades shape the dragon's scales, the flowing hair, and the floral crown in fine detail; two chart versions — with and without backstitches — let you choose your preferred level of detail.

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

Counted cross-stitch is worked by following the colour chart and placing each stitch on the gridded Aida fabric with the indicated DMC thread shade. The backstitch chart adds sharp definition to the dragon's teeth and scales, along with the fine strands of hair, once the coloured stitching is complete. Work section by section until the design is complete, then frame it as a bold, statement piece of wall art.

Finished size: 38x26 cm (14.96x10.24 in). An eye-catching project for fantasy art fans and stitchers who enjoy rich color and dramatic subjects.
