Slapende Baby Olifant

The 13-mesh canvas is perfect for this project—stitches are crisp and easy to see even in the smaller 6x7.6-inch size. It’s turned out so cute as a baby shower gift, and the pattern works up quickly.

I’d already tried a larger counted cross-stitch kit before, so the 13-mesh canvas on this 6 by 7.6 inch panel felt just right—not too tiny, not too big. Stitching up the "Shh Baby Sleeping Elephant" design was quick and satisfying, and the finished sign makes a sweet, clear reminder for a nursery do

The 13-mesh canvas is printed clearly enough that I didn't have to squint at the elephant's outline, which made stitching it up way easier than I expected. At 6 by 7.6 inches it's the perfect size for a nursery door without looking bulky.
