Fly Agarics Cross Stitch Kit by VDV M-0380

Stylized red fly agaric mushrooms with white spots and orange chanterelles stand on dark navy Aida, with small bees and a row of tiny mushrooms along the bottom border.

Why this kit: a folk-style mushroom design that pops against the dark blue fabric; 9 DMC colors plus Preciosa beads, quick to finish; everything needed to finish is in the box, from pre-selected DMC floss to a digital copy of the chart.

Kit includes: 100% cotton 16 count Aida in dark blue, 100% cotton DMC floss in 9 colors, Preciosa beads, a Pony needle, a black-and-white printed chart with the backstitch shown in color, and a digital copy of the pattern. Finished size: 14x14 cm (5.51x5.51 in). Made in Ukraine.

The design is stitched by counting from the chart: each symbol marks one cross stitch in a specific floss color, worked square by square across the Aida, with the backstitch details and Preciosa beads added last to sharpen the picture.

A quick project for beginners and mushroom fans, and a fun autumn accent.
