Paper gliderFree cross-stitch pattern

Paper glider is a cross-stitch pattern of 26 × 17 stitches from the Little Inventors album of Stitch Puzzle. It uses 4 DMC colours and 224 whole cross stitches, with no backstitch and no part stitches.

DMC 158 Cornflower Blu M V D covers the most cells, 75 stitches (33% of the design). The smallest amount is DMC 718 Plum, with 8 stitches.

On 14-count Aida it measures 1.9 × 1.2 in (4.7 × 3.1 cm) and fits a 4-inch hoop. Cut the fabric at least 6 × 6 in (15 × 14 cm), so you have 2 in to spare on every side.
