Every night, the Firebird sneaks into the king's orchard, stealing his golden apple, until one night when prince Ivan discovers its secret. That's the story depicted in this magnificent cross stitch design by Kyoko Maruoka (Gera!). The brilliant colors and intricate design are made even more dramatic by the black fabric background.
This design is available as a printed pattern. Get up and stitching quickly with the coordinating thread pack which comes complete with 24 full skeins of DMC cotton embroidery floss.
Pattern details:
My first completed cross stitch project. Shipping was fast and packaged well.
Got the pattern and thread pack combo; and instead of black linen, I decided on Wichelt's Riviera Olive linen (13" x 18").
This project took me about three months to complete, averaging about an hour a day. There's enough thread to redo mistakes.
I used an 11"x14 frame to put it up on the wall - looks splendid! A very lovely design.
