"Air GUITAR"

A new Glow-in-the-Dark design

Average Retail Price: $9.50CAN ($7.50US)

DESIGN DETAILS: The little silhouettes in this piece are playing 'air guitar' in daylight, but both their bodies and their guitars become visible when the lights go out (if you prefer to eliminate the glow-in-the-dark option, you could stitch the perimeters with DMC 3348). Each of the figures that make up the larger design can be stitched quite quickly and easily as individual pieces... for greeting cards and other smaller items.

AREAS OF EMBELLISHMENT: THE PERIMETER OF EACH FIGURE has been stitched with Kreinik 052F Blending Filament.

FABRIC FOR MODEL: 20-count White Aida... you could, of course, stitch this piece on a lower thread count. The finished needlework would then be larger (18-count.. approx. 7 1/4" x 7 1/2"; 16-count.. approx. 8 1/8" x 8 1/2") and I would recommend substituting #4 Braid for the blending filament.

STITCH COUNT: 130 wide x 135 high

DESIGN AREA: Approx. 6" x 6 1/2" (on 20-count fabric)

MATERIALS REQUIRED: DMC 310 (Black); DMC 327 (Dk. Violet); DMC 702 (Kelly Green); DMC 798 (Dk Delft Blue); DMC 972 (Deep Canary); KREINIK 052F (Grapefruit) OR DMC 3348 (Lt. Yellow Green)
