Regimental Stripes (Cross Stitch Pattern)

Description

This collection of designs by Vicki Hastings introduces us to Regimental Bear, who loves to dress up and wear regimental striped ties. He also has an old favorite chair that he reserves just for himself. The patterns in this leaflet feature traditional colors of the British regiments, which involve stripes in three or more colors, of different widths. The designs include a “This seat Reserved” pillow to guard a special chair, an alphabet sampler featuring (what else?) ties and a belt that can be personalized with the recipient’s initials, a sachet that says “I can’t bear it without you” (perfect for scenting a suitcase), an ivy border for a kitchen towel, and a square design which can be used either for elegant bookends, a box lid or a footstool covering (which also includes an ivy border).

Designs:
* Regimental Stripes (for bookends, box lid or footstool covering)
* Ivy Border (for kitchen towel)
* Regimental Sampler (wall hanging or picture)
* I can’t bear it without you (sachet)
* This seat Reserved (pillow)
