Mini kit calamita con perline «Altalena 1»

“Seesaw – 1” shows a teddy bear on a swing hung from branches with red flowers.

What the picture shows

The bear has settled on the seat and holds the ropes, framed on both sides by clusters of red flowers that carry the swing. Red beads build these flowers around the whole edge, while cream pearl beads outline the bear's head, paws and tummy. Grass, a pebble and a pink snail are painted below, and a lilac butterfly flies in from the left. The ground is pale green with a yellow light at the top. The beaded flower border closes the composition. 156 beads in two colours. The beads do not cover the canvas completely: the printed image around them stays open, and every shade missing from the beads is given by the print itself. On a 50×50 mm square every bead shows, so it helps to lay the stitches in an even row facing one way.
