The cross-point™ Collection
GREEK BORDER - GEOMETRIC NEEDLEPOINT KIT
A classic Greek fret border adapted to a stripe needlepoint pattern
While our Greek Border geometric needlepoint pattern was adapted from a Greek design, related repetitive geometric motifs appear in cultures throughout the world. Variations can be found in ancient Greek and Roman architecture, textiles and pottery, as well as in the decorative arts of the Celts, Moors, China, the Middle East and the Americas. Depending on time and place, these continuous patterns have suggested such ideas as the eternal flow of life, infinity, harmony, balance and order.
This classic pattern is very adaptable. Use it vertically or horizontally for pillows or upholstery. If the color version you like does not have the center stripes, sufficient wool can be included to add them. If you would like an additional full-width pattern border in the center, just email me when you order through the website. Greek Border is an Easy (E) Beginner project. It is quickly stitched, yet creates a rich, strong geometric design that fits easily into any décor.

Each kit contains large charts in colors and symbols, fabric, luxurious French tapestry wool, needles, and detailed instructions specific to the individual pattern, including additional charts for outlines and other details where helpful. "E" patterns are especially easy for beginners; "X" patterns are recommendet for experienced stitchers because separate design elements require more careful counting across background areas. Unclassified patterns can be stitched by anyone with a little practice. Also included are our cross-point™ Technique sheets. Kits do not include backing or trim.
