Aegean Ornament Blue Cross Stitch Kit by Avlea Folk Embroidery.
The Aegean Ornaments cross stitch folk embroidery kit is a delightful collection of four traditional folk embroidery motifs--a sawtooth diamond, a stylised tulip, an eight-pointed star, and an allover design. Each one is a small gem of the folk embroidery tradition. Stitched in bright navy and antique blue with light gold accents, the set can be finished as ornaments, coasters, pincushions, or any small project of your choosing, and the kit includes fabric and lining for all four. They make wonderful gifts, and a set stitched and displayed together is charming!
