You, Me & the Sea Punch Needle Pattern - This wonderful seahorse pattern was created using a technique that the background is a piece of wool fabric. This was done by placing the wool fabric over the blank side of the weaver's cloth fabric and then using a hoop. The Hoop worked better than using a gripper frame to hold both pieces of fabric "drum-tight". I increased my thread length to compensate for the wool thickness and punched thru both pieces of fabric. This is an option for you or you can use the O-31 teal-ish blue Valdani as your background thread.
YOU, ME, & THE SEA: Pattern size 6 1/4 x 8 1/4
The Paper or Drawn on weavers cloth patterns includes the full-color pattern thread placement guide, which details exactly where each thread color is used throughout the design, along with the thread length adjustments used in the design and the custom thread list used to create this pattern.
PATTERN OPTIONS: Paper pattern or Drawn on Weavers Cloth pattern both available with the optional purchase of the Custom THE SEA-Valdani Thread 10 pc. Perle cotton (size 12) kit.
*Please Note: Save by purchasing thread kit with the pattern. This is a better overall value than purchasing separately.
*NEW* Orphaned Wool Punch Needle Patterns now include (2) thread company choices - Valdani Thread (used to create this pattern), along with the new option of using DMC 6 stand Floss. Please Note: The DMC floss 6 strand skeins selected are solid colors, thus are not variegated like some Valdani colors used in this pattern. DMC will create a slightly different finish to the pattern from the Valdani thread colors.
The NEW DMC Floss & Valdani Thread colors codes will be included on a separate sheet, along with the formula & information needed to help estimate the amount of DMC floss needed to complete this pattern.
For the Paper Patterns, I recommend that you use a small lightbox and Micron 05 Archival Ink Pen to trace your patterns onto your weaver's cloth fabric.
The Drawn-on weaver's cloth pattern version is a "ready to go" pattern, and is all hand-drawn on quality weavers cloth fabric and is ready to go on your frame or hoop.
