Hello,

This is a fully stitched design. The pattern uses 14ct. White or Antique White Aida because the entire fabric area will be stitched with the design :) Thank you.

MY OPINION -- I'm not an employee. If you don't want to do all that stitching consider stitching on an overdyed fabric like a soft yellowish beige or sky blue. Use a color that would look winterish while snowing. It will still be very pretty
