Truck Snow Globea Cross Stitch Pattern by Shannon Christine Designs

I have not started this yet but love Shannon’s designs. I’m going to stitch it on Wichelt 14 Ct Aida Star Sapphire. I’m fairly new to cross stitch and love the precise holes and stiffness of Wichelt fabric. The Star Sapphire is a beautiful sage green that is dark enough to work with the white confetti yet light enough to work well with other greens.

Pattern has issues with the backstitching covering the stitch symbol at multiple locations. Have to use a magnifying glass to determine what the symbol is under the backstitch. But it is worth it. Pattern is beautiful finished. Would suggest that the manufacturer do two patterns. One with just the symbols of the stitches with no backstitches on top of pattern and one with the backstitching on. It would make this pattern so much easier to complete.

It was quite difficult and needed concentration but the result was lovely. Some difficulty in finding the beads

It was a little difficult to visualize this since the picture on the pattern is digitalized, but it is beautiful when finished. It is a little bit difficult because of the metallic threads and beads, but is well worth the effort.
