Still Life with Apple Blossoms in a Nautilus Shell – Martin Johnson Heade

From: £2.00

A spray of apple blossoms in a vase made from a nautilus shell mounted on a silver flower stem with cockle shells as a base.  The vase stands on a table covered with a brocade cloth.  Nearby is an ivory fan with a tassel, a shallow goblet with a pearl necklace spilling over the sides, and a small box partly covered by a gray velvet curtain with a gold fringe.  In one corner is a lace curtain, and the background is red and black wallpaper in a diamond pattern. (American, 1870) This pattern is solidly stitched. Any color fabric may be used.

Please note Scarlet Quince designs have blended threads, and our kits are designed for stitching “over 1”.

So if you prefer to use full crosses, you will need 25 count or lower as our kits for 28 and 32 count are designed for stitching with 1 strand over 1 thread (which isn’t possible when you have 2 colours).

14 count kits can come with either 14 count aida or 28 count evenweave (for stitching over 2)
18 and 20 count kits are provided with aida

25, 28 and 32 count kits are provided with evenweave.
