Excuse me for tooting our collective Guild horn for a moment <g> but
we have instructions for a kit for just such an item at our
[WKneedle] Yahoo site. It's accessible to anyone with a Yahoo ID.
It's worked in tent stitch on 12/inch canvas and the motifs are taken
from 16th century counted-thread works.
