These large and bold numbers make beautiful cards for significant birthdays and anniversaries. The numbers are approximately 95mm (3.75 inches) tall.

Two numbers will almost fill an oblong card 104 x 152 mm (4.2 x 6 inches).

When two numbers are stitched on a square card 144 x 144 mm (5.65 x 5.65 inches) there is room above or below to add a greeting of your choice (not supplied).

This set is a collection of the numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 and 0. A layout guide is provided, making it easy to combine two numbers accurately.

In the above diagram, the blue outline represents a square card and the red outline represents an oblong card. Any two numbers can be positioned on this grid.

The patterns are supplied as PDF files for you to download and print. For information about buying cards and thread see the tutorials section.

The design comes with a numbered diagram, a pricking pattern, and step-by-step instructions for hand-stitching your greetings cards.
