In 1900, W.E.B. Du Bois unveiled a striking series of hand-drawn charts and infographics at the Paris World Fair, capturing the African American experience for a global audience. This counted cross stitch design by Shaded Stitchery is an interpretation of that historic work, honoring both Du Bois's artistry and the vital data he preserved.

The design is available as a printed hardcopy pattern. If you want to get up and stitching quickly, save yourself the time of collecting all the supplies and purchase one of our bundle options which include the pattern along with fabric, thread, and needles.
