Solar Eclipse Sequence - Astronomy cross stitch pattern
These detailed and accurate cross stitch patterns show a sequence of images over the course of a total solar eclipse. You will receive two 17-page PDF booklets, one with the charts in colour blocks and symbols, and the other with the charts in black and white symbols (with colour backstitch). Each booklet contains the design in two arrangements, one horizontal and one vertical, so you can stitch the layout which suits you. You will also receive a comprehensive PDF guide to cross stitching.
Each chart layout is given as a single page pattern for screen use, and a split page pattern for printing. There is also a page explaining what happens during a solar eclipse.
Each individual image can also be stitched and mounted individually as cards or in 3 inch hoops - as ornaments, on a string or perhaps on a Christmas tree.
