Gum Tree Bark Needlepoint Pattern PDF, Australian Eucalyptus Pillow Chart from an Original Painting, Abstract Cushion, 13 & 18 Mesh

From my painting Rainbow Gum: ribbons of colour in gum tree bark, in silver, plum, rust, sage and blue. Painted in acrylic, now charted for needlepoint as a tall cushion or a framed piece.

This needlepoint design comes from my original acrylic painting, Rainbow Gum. I chart each design myself from the painting, choosing the threads and tidying the grid so it's a pleasure to stitch, not a pixelated photo.
