Up, up, and away! These high-flying baby dragons are sure to capture your heart with their antics. They're headed over the rainbow to follow their dreams. The text reads: "Let Your Imagination Soar...". Now, just imagine hanging the finished cross stitch piece on the wall of your kid's room. How cute would that be!
This fantasy cross stitch design measures 120 stitches wide by 180 stitches high. It is printed in a multi-page leaflet, with a color picture of the completed design on the cover. The chart is graphed in black and white symbols. A table showing the DMC colors you'll need is included. The pattern is printed over 2 pages in the center, so there is no need to match page edges. A few simple specialty stitches are called for in the hot air balloon, and instructions are included for these stitches (It's a wonderful way to expand your embroidery skills!). This adorable dragon cross stitch design was created by Jennifer L. Aikman-Smith, of Dragon Dreams.
This is a pattern for counted cross stitch. It is not a complete kit. You will need to supply your own fabric and floss. We are not able to offer digital downloads of our patterns at this time.
How much fabric do I need?
To calculate the amount of fabric you will need for your project, divide the number of stitches by the stitch count of the fabric you wish to use. The higher the count of your fabric, the smaller your piece will be. Some examples appear below. Remember to leave several additional inches as a border on each side, to facilitate framing your project when it is finished.
Fabric count | Approximate size of stitched area |
---|
14-count | 8 1/2" × 12 3/4" |
18-count | 6 3/4" × 10" |
25-count | 4 3/4" × 7 1/4" |
