Hand-made pre-worked center work needlepoint canvas of four birds on branches with flowers. Two of the birds are red cardinals. The birds are 100% completed in beautifully detailed 20-count petit point, and the branches and flowers are completed in regular 10-count gros point.

The preworked area is approximately 5 1/4" wide by 24 1/2" high on 10-mesh Penelope canvas approximately 9" wide by 31 1/4" tall, suitable for a bell pull, picture, or small table runner. The canvas is 100% cotton and the pre-work is 100% wool.

Pre-work (also called center-work) is when the main design is already stitched and the customer stitches the background in whatever color they want. The pre-work is usually regular gros point needlepoint (10-count stitching) and sometimes includes petit point (20-count stitching) for fine details.

Purchase is for the pre-worked canvas only. The yarn to complete the background is not included. We also sell a variety of yarns to complete this project and we can create a second eBay listing for the yarn. We have Paternayan, Brunswick, and Bucilla 3-strand Persian wool (stitch using either 2 or 3 strands, depending on intended use). We have DMC, Elsa Williams, and Nostra Zephyr (Dutch) tapestry wools. We have DMC Pearl Cotton #3, #5, and 6-strand cotton embroidery floss.
