America 544

How on earth do you encapsulate a country as large and diverse as the United States of America in a single cross stitch piece. Thea Gouverneur has had a pretty good crack at it with her America kit. I love the subtle way she has framed it with the Golden Gate Bridge and the Brooklyn Bridge and the Statue of Liberty with Mount Rushmore overlooking it all and the symbols and lanscapes and architecture we all recognise.

It must have been so hard to figure out what to include and what to leave out. Thea Gouverneur Cities and Countries are stunning counted cross stitch kits for the discerning stitcher. An incredible piece of needlework to commemorate a trip of a lifetime and beautiful artworks in their own right.

Fully self contained kits with clear charts and instructions, a choice of 36 count linen, or 18 count aida in white or black, DMC threads and a needle
