Avlea Folk Embroidery

I'm so excited to introduce a brand new stitch technique to Avlea: atzolati! It's a type of satin stitch worked on evenweave fabric, found throughout Greece, and it makes a striking woven-look texture that's wonderfully different from cross stitch. Little Chevrons will release soon, so if you're interested in learning this new technique please sign up for my email and you'll be the first to know!

The Aegean Arbor table runner brings the feeling of a shady Mediterranean garden right onto your table with its stylized flowers, little fences, and garden paths worked in a soft, sun-bleached blue. It's one of those designs that looks complex but stitches up in a calm, steady rhythm. A lovely pick for a slow summer project!
