Les Parapluies de Cherbourg

Materials: linen cotton blend fabric, DMC floss,
Bohin embroidery needle

Les Parapluies de Cherbourg ( The Umbrellas of Cherbourg) is a French inspired hand embroidery kit. I loved the movie "The Umbrellas of Cherbourg" and was fascinated with the storefront's colors. It was the first movie I saw in which the dialogue was sung as recitative. There is a welcoming flower sign in the window along with many colorful umbrellas.

This is one of many French shops that can be grouped into a collection on a wall.

- Finished size is 8.9" x 12.6". Will fit into an 11" x 14" frame depending upon the mat. Great frames at Ikea and Michaels.

The kit includes:

  • printed design on linen/cotton fabric
  • a Bohin #10 needle
  • DMC floss
  • detailed stitching and floss instructions for all parts of the design
  • general stitching guide
  • wooden hoop
