Pierre-Auguste Renoir's famous "Madame Georges Carpenter (Marguérite-Louise Lemonnier) and Her Children, Georgette-Berthe and Paul-Émile-Charles" painting as a tramme needlepoint kit. Faces, hair, arms, and legs are in detailed petit point.

Canvas size 18" high x 23" wide. Work size 13" x 17".

This kit includes the trammed canvas (100% cotton canvas with hand-stitched trammed portions in 100% wool) and matching 100% wool needlepoint tapestry yarn to stitch over the trammed canvas using half-cross stitch. This kit was produced in very limit quantities and does not have custom printed instructions, pictures, charts, or packaging typically found in mass-produced kits.

A tramme needlepoint is a pre-stitched design on double-mesh Penelope canvas instead of a painted or printed design. The pre-stitching is typically horizontal lines. The needleworker uses the matching color yarn included in the kit to stitch over the pre-stitching. Sometimes fine details such as faces, skin, and flowers are pre-finished in petit point or gros stitch. Kits generally only include sufficient yarn to stitch over the pre-stitch using the half-cross stitch technique to save yarn. Some trammes have the entire design area pre-stitched, and others only have the main features pre-stitched and the needleworker provides their own yarn (and colors of choice) to stitch the background and unstitched areas.
