Floss estimation is for stitching as directed on 40-count fabric with one strand of floss over 2 threads of linen. DMC equivalents are only approximate, as there are no exact equivalents for hand over-dyed fibers.

LeafPackage contains a master chart and an enlarged chart for easy viewing.

LeafI encourage you to use floss and fabric colors that match your personality and style.

LeafStitches:

Cross Stitch over two linen threads
Back Stitch

French or colonial knots (only three are used)

LeafThe motifs would work great for magnets or scissor fobs!
