THE NOVA SCOTIA TARTAN CHART PACK Includes 2 cross-stitch charts Tartan sett - stitch count: 42 x 42 Tartan map - stitch count: 111 x 62 plus project ideas and instructions to help you apply cross-stitch tartan to virtually any project.

Designing each cross-stitch sett comes with its own set of obstacles. In adapting the Nova Scotia tartan, I used a swatch of woollen tartan ca. 1960. The colours in those days were much sharper, much prettier than the (dare I say "cheaper-looking") fabrics you see these days. So don't scold me. Yes, I have knowingly substituted black for the hunter green because on my selected fabric that colour "reads" as black. (Unless you're up really, really close and in bright, natural light.) For other tartans see our Scottish Collection

Prices are listed in Canadian dollars. Finished size is approximate measurement of cross-stitch area. Fabric supplied with kit is sized to give a suitable allowance for working and for framing if applicable.
