Technique - Flatten the canvas without any creases using simple long stitches throughout. Fill in the desired colored strands through the printed design.
Work the stitches vertically from one hole to another.
To finish stitching, tie a knot on the back side and snip off.
Once finished turn the canvas and press with an iron on the back side.
Get it framed as desired.
Tips - Stitch the darker colors first and then transition to the lighter areas.
See that you avoid dust and dirt when handling the cloth.
Do not stitch continuously and take adequate breaks in between.
Time Taken - 1 month
