"Glowing Moon Pillow"

Make a "night light" pillow for a child in your life with this fun
design. It uses Kreinik glow-in-the-dark colors, cross stitched on an
easy count Aida cloth.


 
Skill level: Beginner
  
Materials needed:
14-count Aida in dark blue or black
Kreinik #8 Braid in 052F, 051F, 054F, 055F
Kreinik #4 Braid 052F
#24 Tapestry needle
 
Instructions:
Cross stitch this design centered on your fabric. Each square on the
chart equals one fabric thread. Use one strand of #8 Braid for all
cross stitches. Use one strand of #4 Braid for the backstitching.
 
Tip: The fluorescent material in the thread can make it feel a little
stiffer than other threads. Simply stitch slowly, using lengths no more
than 15 inches, and let your needle dangle every few stitches to let
the thread relax.
