The picture and the listing are misleading. The design picture shows cloudy blue areas which I thought were part of the design that would have to be cross stitched. It turns out however the design is stitched on specially dyed "Summer Clouds" fabric, So the cloudy parts aren't stitched but dyed. This is not mentioned in the listing nor is that specially dyed fabric available. Casacenina offers an alternative (overall light blue dyed aida) but that is nowhere near the cloudy blue in the picture...

It is my favorite canvas which I replace with linen due to cost reasons. I embroider it with a mouliné thread on two weft threads, it's beautiful...

The magazine is a gold mine for those who love French style. Some disadvantages: for those who don't have perfect eyesight, the diagrams are a bit small and therefore need to be enlarged; some schemes (such as the alphabets) are not complete and must be ordered separately. This summer issue has some beautiful designs...

Wooden needle minder with strong and effective magnet. I'm collecting the whole series because I like it to be in theme with my embroidery...

Beautiful issue of Mains et merveilles that I recommend you buy while you can find it. Beautiful patterns for autumn and Halloween in French style...

Very nice and impressive scheme. I only modified the "Jardin des Plantes" label, avoiding the black fill which seemed too heavy to me...
