March 11, 2022--The March meeting program of Delaware's Seashore Chapter of ANG consisted of learning the Assisi technique while cross stitching a rose. This results in a negative effect where the background is stitched, and the central design is left blank. Thank you, Bobbie R., for introducing us to this style of stitching and I look forward to working up more designs using this technique.
This project was stitched on 28 count Jobelin linen with two strands of DMC over 2 threads of fabric, effectively making it 14 count linen. I think the result is quite dramatic.
