Village Green DetailsBack to Gallery

Create an elegant Village Green. There are 17 patterns, each with different color combinations that make up the 64 squares in the green. Each square has a Half Rhodes Stitch on top done in a vertical or horizontal manner producing a richly textured look. Many times needleblending of colors is used to create a subtle change in appearance. The Village Green is surrounded by a path, fence and twelve classic structures with unique detailing symmetrically arranged around the green. These include a church, schoolhouse, town hall, large and small houses and factory buildings. An outside octagon border completes this lovely design on canvas.
