A...Skew

This piece is stitched in a not quite upright direction. There are lots of angles and diagonals. At the end of this piece, the stitcher will be well versed in stitching on the diagonal and understanding compensation. The attachment of the wool pumpkin in the middle will also add a level of work to be understood. The stitcher will also need to draw the canvas from a template. Counting and double counting will be the manner in which this is achieved!

A…skew is stitched with Kreinik, Silk Lame’ Braid, Very Velvet, Soie Perlee, Vineyard Merino Wool and Perle 5 Cotton.
Approximate finished dimensions: 5 3/4” x 5 3/4” - done on 18 count canvas.
