CANVASWORK DREAMS

The  DREAM SERIES is a variety of stitches and fibres worked in Canvaswork.

Due to the size of these designs they are ideal for pillows and they can all be worked in your own

colour choices and fibres that are compatible to the size recommended.

It is worked in numerous colours and fibers.  There is a supply
