La Roseraie
The Fourth in the 'Lounge Suite Series'


Designed For and Available Exclusively from
Needle Ny-dle Noo, Perth, Western Australia


With ribbon roses, pearls, seed beads and a design reminiscent of Marie Antoinette's French court, La roseraie is the fourth in my Lounge Suite series. The circular seat cushion lifts up to reveal a little silk-lined box, just perfect for storing treasured stitching accessories. Turn the chair around to discover a pretty little scissor slide on the back, festooned with ribbons and ideal for housing a little pair of
embroidery scissors.


This project is completed using DMC cottons, River Silk ribbons and Mill Hill beads, on 32 count Belfast Linen.


The chart pack includes easy-to-read charts, comprehensive finishing instructions, chair templates, cardstock and bead feet.
There is a fabric and fibre pack also available to purchase.

Stitches used: Cross Stitch, Spider-web Roses, and
Japanese Ribbon stitch.

to both the Peacock Stitching Chair and The Garden Chair.
Pretty in pinks and browns this chaise longue would feel right
at home in a Victorian parlour. There's a scissor pocket
to be found on the back of the chaise, and the bolster cushion
is really a scissor fob. With on speciality stitches included in
this piece, the design takes the art of cross stitch to the
next level!

Flowers, hearts and ribbons surround a lovely little ode to friends stitched 'over one' on the chair back. There's a little seat drawer to house stitching necessities, and in addition I have included a parasol 'tool caddy' for a tiny pair of scissors and laying tools. There's even a tiny 'pillow' scissor fob to make the chair even more comfy.
