CANYAS

♦    Cut the canvas with the border design, plus an extra border of 5 cm (2 in). Bind the edges.

♦    Outline the brick’s shape; draw horizontal and vertical lines to mark the design’s center.

♦    Spray paint the canvas red.

FOLLOWING THE CHART

♦    Repeat the design on the chart as needed.

♦    Thread needles with the complete color sequence for the interlocking sections, i.e. four red shades graded from light to dark.

♦    From the center, work outwards, stitching all four colors to establish a four-row seąuence.

STITCHING

♦    For instructions, see Stitching, page 138.

♦    Use Madeira 6 Stranded Cotton as supplied.

MAKING THE RED BRICK

♦    See Finishing instructions, page 139. Then cover the brick with polyester stuffing to even the surface. After the canvas is sewn together, slip-stitch some felt to the brick’s underside.
