Cross Stitch Kit "Bees"
Description
“Bees” is a graphic flower head worked in black thread with two bees on it.
What the picture shows
The whole inflorescence — a globe of dozens of small blossoms on thin stalks — is drawn in outline only, in dark thread with no fills, and the stem runs down as a single line. The one piece of colour is the bees themselves: ginger, black and gold stripes worked in Preciosa beads and metallic thread. The white canvas is not covered at all, so the design reads like a pen drawing on paper. Twelve floss colours, 19 m of thread. The black outline does the job of the drawing here rather than merely edging it: without it there would be no composition at all.

A 150×150 mm miniature, rated simple but full of small outline stitches. Graphic work like this looks best under glass in a slim frame — all chosen separately, as none of it is in the kit. Outline work goes more slowly than solid fills, so those 19 m of thread stretch over several evenings.
