Description
PLEASE NOTE: this pattern was originally a SAL (Stitch-ALong). Its format is therefore very different from “normal” patterns. You will get a Welcome Booklet, as well as individual patterns as described below:

- a full key for all the colours used
- a printable thread card
- a layout page with a suggestion of how to place each section on the fabric
- the outline of each section
- a special stitch tutorial page for all those used in this SAL
EACH PART is then downloadable:
- a chart for each of the 8 parts to be stitched
- a finishing tutorial (in 2 parts) with very clear instructions & photos, to fully assemble the project
CHARTED WITH:
- Zweigart Belfast 32ct linen [Alternative: Zweigart Cashel 28ct linen]
- DMC stranded cotton
- Rainbow Gallery Petite Treasure Braid
- Mill Hill beads
- 6 mm sequins
THIS PROJECT INCLUDES:

I have just completed the Jacquie SAL and absolutely loved it! I challenged myself to do the expert level and learnt so much in the process. Faby’s instructions are well written and clear with lots of pictures to help! And I have a beautiful ‘magic’ needlebook to show for it.
