Description
This is a geometric design to be completed in silk and metallic threads by Judy Souliotis. I am assuming that my wife assembled the materials, although a complete kit was apparently available. This is probably a pretty advanced level project.There is one discrepancy between the included materials and the required materials. The buyer will need to decide on a solution to this, I can swap threads if requested at purchase, or the buyer can pursue his own solution.
Included materials are:
1. 10" x 10" Congress cloth in white
2. Soie de Paris silk in Blanc and color #4631 (as required)
3. Needlepoint Inc. Silk #450 and #451 1 skein each (as required)
4. Kreinik #4 braid--included 2 spools in color 001 J and 1 spool in 002J.
Required (!!) 1 spool in color 001J and 2 spools in 002J)
5. Kreinik #8 braid-- included 1 spool each in color 001 J and 002J
Not included, but required-- 10 " x 10" stretcher bars, tapestry needles #22, #24 and #26.
Possibly solutions to the thread discrepancy:
1. The buyer could purchase a spool of Kreinik #4 braid in color 002J on their own. (this is simplest, particularly if the buyer has a local shop. This thread is still sold .)
2. The buyer could decide to invert the use of gold and silver in the design.
3. Instead of color 002J, I could supply the 3 required spools of gold thread in another shade of gold (color 002 or 221). These are not as shiny as the Japan gold.
