Nine Square Diamonds

This design takes fun-to-do composite stitches and combines them with a diamond quilt pattern to create a unique, modern design. The design is stitched on 18-count eggshell can­vas with silk and wool blended threads and uses accents of three different weights of metal­lics. Stitches include a diamond eyelet and herringbone variations, French knots, woven, Briton, and others. The project is a great size for a wallet insert, or it can be finished as a pillow, tray, tote bag, eyeglass, or cell phone case. Stitchers can choose their own colors or try one of the thread kits of the three color combinations available (grey, yellow, and red; blue, grey, and pink;
and blue, yellow, and tan.)
