{"product_id":"winter-pines-mini-wall-hanging-cross-stitch-pdf-pattern","title":"Winter Pines Mini Wall Hanging Cross Stitch PDF pattern","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Winter Pines cross stitch folk embroidery PDF pattern is inspired by a vintage needlework pattern I found in Greece. My family has long enjoyed skiing in the Cascade Mountains, and this cheery little design reminds me of quiet mornings on the mountain when the snow is fresh and we're heading out for our ski patrol and mountain hosting duties (the little cross on the skier's jacket is optional). I've echoed the forest setting with an outer border of little mountains and pine trees, stitched in classic red, pine green, and black. It finishes as a mini wall hanging on a beechwood tapestry rod, a style common in Greece and a beautiful alternative to displaying in an embroidery hoop.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat you'll make:\u003c\/strong\u003e One 5-1\/2 x 7-1\/4\" mini wall hanging\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStitches used:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cross stitch, backstitch\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSkill level:\u003c\/strong\u003e Beginner\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStitch count:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2,250 cross stitches, 22 backstitches (80 x 80 stitch area)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat does \"beginner\" mean for this pattern?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou can start here with no cross stitch experience at all.
