Window - Orchids & The Hummingbird

The hummingbird surveys his realm filled with lush tropical plants and fiery orchids in this adaptation of a painting by Martin Johnson Heade. (Pre-Raphaelite period) He painted during the late 1800's and was known for his lush floral paintings especially of the flowers of Brazil and hummingbirds. You receive instructions for several different ways to assemble this picture and also satin stitch borders you can use after stitching the design so you can just zig zag them together to finish. I've added some velvet leaves around the silk and velvet frame for interest. There is a companion set to this window, Window - the Hummingbirds and the Orchid.

Please click on check sizes below to see the stitch counts and sizes of these designs. Be sure your machine can stitch the number of stitches and colors- especially if you are looking at the small size.

The medium size, shown below is 12x20 inches, the small is 8x12 and the large 14x24 inches without borders.
