Forget Me Not Fairy Cross Stitch Chart by DMCPrepare to enter the secret world of the Flower Fairies. Flower Fairies are tiny creatures (the biggest is only 20cm tall) that live in the bottom of the garden, the middle of grassy meadows, and on the edge of distant marshes. Wherever and whenever a seed sprouts, a Flower Fairy baby is born. Each Flower Fairy lives and sleeps in their chosen flower, plant or tree and as this grows the fairy grows too. Each and every Flower Fairy is in charge of looking after their flower or plant; keeping it strong and healthy by making sure it has plenty of sunshine and water to drink, sweeping away dead leaves and polishing flowers and stems. Created by Cicely Mary Barker the Flower Fairies are famous throughout the world and beautifully translated into cross stitch chart packs by DMC. Here we have a colour chart for the Forget Me Not Fairy.Included with the chart is a pack of rocaille beads. Perfect for embellishing your stitching to add that extra sparkle.
