Hearts and Trumpets

Hearts and Trumpets

This Loretta Spears Designs chart was published in May 1996.  It is worked on ash rose canvas with two types of Kreinik metallic in an open stitch.

This piece was stitched by the Diet Pepsi and Xanax blog. The blog notes the original canvas color was rose but the stitcher saved that to resell with the design on eBay later and went with green instead.

Close Up of Hearts and Trumpets

The Needleart Nut provided this closeup of the photo.  The original lavender look of the photo shows better here.

Materials List:

6 x 6 inch Ash Rose #18 mono canvas
Kreinik braid size 16, #013
Kreinik 1/16 inch ribbon, #013

Note that Kreinik 013 is now Beige.  It is likely judging from the photograph that some shade of pink or fuchsia was the original color to match the ash rose canvas (a dusty pink color).
