About this pattern

An old-fashioned black sewing machine on a wooden base, seen from the sewing side. Gold lines run along the arm and the bed, with a small gold diamond ornament on the arm and another on the pillar. A reel of red thread stands on the spool pin on top, a grey needle bar and presser foot come down at the left, and the hand wheel shows edge on at the right as a tall narrow slab with one light stripe. No maker's name or badge. Full crosses only. It is 57 by 43 stitches and uses six thread colors.

57 stitches wide by 43 high: 1,346 full cross stitches in 6 DMC colors (Black 310, Very Dark Hazelnut Brown 869, Medium Topaz 783 and 3 more).
