This is a genuine goldmine for stitchers: letters and motifs in shapes, sizes, and styles that can be adapted to any piece. Until a few generations ago, French women spent winters monogramming or marking their household linens. Today's crafters can do the same or apply these alphabets, flowers, and borders in creative ways to other projects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe hundreds of patterns are digitally transcribed to make them clear.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAll patterns are designed for cross-stich embroidery, either over one or two warp or weft threads.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFeatures photos of projects featuring the patterns, to offer inspiration. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Schiffer Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46133598617858,"sku":"98617858","price":45.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0741\/4736\/5122\/files\/d67778d2df25ed2b804611042185b46230ce35621c1652b6e6a1bb5657225110.jpg?v=1771782940","url":"https:\/\/oldeschoolcraft.com\/products\/vintage-french-needlework","provider":"Olde School Fiber \u0026 Craft","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
