The newest release from Barb and Alma of Blackbird Designs is All Joys for Thine.
This one is stitched on 36ct Heartland linen from Picture This Plus using Weeks Dye Works and Classic Colorworks floss (Barn Door, Cinnamon Toast, Fool’s Gold, Hazelnut, Pine Needles, Polliwog, Stormy Night) and Weeks Dye Works (Dirt Road, Sage, Sandcastle). The stitch count is 165w x 135h which makes the stitched size on 36 or 18ct 9 1/8 x 7 1/2. If there is no over 1 stitches, I will use 16ct aida which will make the stitched size 10 3/8 x 8 1/2. Another beautiful chart from my favorite designers.
