If it hadn’t been so cross,
I’d have shown it before,”
added Sewing Bird.
Cross Stitching
1. Cut a canvas piece, five inches long and three inches wide.
2. At the right hand end from under side, two holes from the edge, and eight holes down, point needle upward. Pull through.
3. Point needle downward into hole above the hole to the left of where thread hangs out, and bring it up through the hole directly beneath.
4. Continue across the canvas.
5. Return on same row of stitches in same way, but work from left to right, taking stitches in exactly the same holes as at first. This will form a cross. The stitches must all be taken in the same direction.
