|Border Kits

 

 

Many of you enjoy stitching our designers patterns but want a change from the all-over tapestry look. The idea in this range is to create a more flexible, understated look that would fit easily in contemporary homes. You choose your own fabric for the central panel with colors to suit your own interior. We have photographed this group using a uniform hessian fabric for all the panels but you could use whatever you like: linen, cotton, velvet or silk. With less to stitch these kits work up quickly and easily on 10 or 8 holes to the inch canvas.

The canvas comes in one piece with the pattern printed in full color in the usual way. The central section of the canvas is left blank. There is scope here for creative stitchers to use their own imagination: designing their own patterns or simply stitching the area in a single color. It should be pointed out that the kit provides wool for the printed border pattern only, not for the central unprinted area.

We strongly recommend that the making up of these cushions is done by a professional upholsterer. De Winter Ltd. can provide this service by mail order for our UK customers. They have a wide selection of fabrics in different materials and a good range of colors. Details and information for finishing services for US and UK customers can be found in the Finishing section.
