  Stitching Instructions: Before you begin your motto, please read the Vintage Needleworks Stitching Guide completely. This is enclosed in your kit.   

Begin your motto by satin stitching the letters using the variegated red floss provided in your kit. Some of your stitches will be one hole in length while others will be longer. This is fine. In the smallest areas of detail, such as in the capital G and F, you can use a back stitch where needed to cover the pattern without making your fancy "scrollies" look too thick. Next, back stitch the background work using the gold floss provided. The leaves along the scroll work can be satin stitched. The trunk of the tree and the branches can be back stitched using your brown floss. The leaves can be satin stitched in green. Enjoy!
