This cross stitch stand-up measures 7" high x 3"

It is stitched on light fiddler's cloth
with hand over-dyed threads and is a design
from Homespun Elegance.

The stand-up is firmly stuffed and has a small
weighted muslin sack inside, covered
cardboard base and is backed with a tonal
spring green cotton print, reminds me of
green grass which where I live is under quite
a bit of snow!


Picot ribbon and a beaded hat pin embellish
the top; a linen thread with decorative
button are secured across the front.
