Advent Calendar 2023 – Nativity Scene
Maria´s Robe

Maria’s cape is outlined with wide Stem stitches (coton à broder No. 16).

All other outlines are embroidered with Coral Knot stitches (coton à broder No. 16).

The dress should have Röserich as a surface filling pattern, as in my opinion this pattern adapts well to the shape of the skirt.
(Find further information about Röserich filling patterns in my book The most beautiful Röserich Filling Patterns)

Into the limet grid (leave 3, cut 1)

as usual, the Rose stitches are first embroidered (see filling pattern 472).

and then the pattern is completed.

Since the top of the dress is supposed to have the same pattern, but the area is very small, I use copies again to determine how I have to place the stitches so that the pattern remains recognizable.

The cape should have an openwork pattern.

The leave 2, cut 2 thread grid is first secured with Cable stitches (coton à broder No. 30).
