Based on the silhouette of a vintage Singer machine, this piece gives you lots of practice with different patterns! Divided into sections, there are 19 different styles of blackwork to try out, and the colours transition gradually across a warm, neutral palette.
Stitch this up in any colour you like; I've included an 8-colour version and a simple black, but this piece would also look fantastic with variegated thread!
You get a lot for your money with this pattern! A colour version, a solid black version, and 5 different text variations are all included in this listing.
Please note, this listing is for a pattern to allow you to create your own cross stitch.
It is NOT a finished item! You will receive digital (PDF) files, not a physical item.
