Scared Squared - Cross Stitch on Silk Gauze from Erica Michaels


	Scared Squared What fun is this - bright and vibrant whimsy for Halloween! This is a bit of departure in style for me, but was ever so much fun to work on. The intersecting borders include cross stitches over two threads of gauze mesh for added texture, and there are bits of tiny straight stitches and lazy daisies for detail. Don’t be afraid of the dark background colors – when stitching on silk gauze it’s a breeze to get this dramatic color contrast. In fact, it’s much easier to fill in the dark backgrounds on the silk gauze than it is to stitch the design on black linen or evenweave! Stitch count: 79 wide x 79 high (1.9” x 1.9”) Threads: Crescent Colours: Amber Waves, Chili Pepper,m Colonial Copper, Frog Legs, Golden Star, Green Onion, Magnolia Blossom, Nighty Nite, Pea Pod, Rainy Day Weeks Dye Works: Blue Bonnet 2339 DMC: 600 Stitching Level: Beginning to Intermediate
