Mini kit calamita con perline «Tè aromatico»

“Flavored tea” is a white cup with a sugar bowl among sprays of mimosa.

What the picture shows

The cup stands in the centre with a small two-handled sugar bowl beside it, both on a lace napkin. White beads outline the rims, the sides of the china and the edge of the saucer. Yellow beads gather into fluffy mimosa blooms: a large spray on the left, a branch rising above the cup and small flowers in the corners. The border around the canvas mixes both colours. The ground is pale lilac with painted lace and a thin frame. 145 beads in two colours. The print on the canvas shows between the beads: this piece needs no solid filling, and the beadwork acts as an accent over a finished drawing. The pattern is printed straight onto the canvas, so you can stitch anywhere — on the road or at the kitchen table, with no screen and no printouts.
