We have created a pattern for Crown Anemone (Anemone coronaria) - "Palestinian Poppy"
The flower has all the same colors as the Palestinian flag. They bloom from April-June and are a strong national symbol. The stories surrounding this symbolism date back to around 1200 BCE. The flower symbolizes the relationship between the lives of Palestinians and Palestine, where Palestinians' bodies give life to the land and the flower is colored red by their blood.
110 NOK from each sale is donated to HEAL Palestine, a non-profit that helps in Gaza with Health, Education, Aid and Leadership. You can read more about them here. There is no profit on these kits, but a little money left over from each to cover VAT, transaction fees and other costs.
The kit contains:
- Water-soluble pattern template.
- Sheet with step-by-step instructions on how to cross-stitch, the motif in several sizes, and how to use and transfer the motif if you want to stitch it multiple times without buying a pre-printed template
- 4 skeins of DMC mouliné thread, in black, white, red, and green
- needle
If you buy the entire kit, 100 NOK will be donated
If you buy a Solufix template with digital instructions, without threads, 30 NOK will be donated
If you want to buy a digital file to trace, you can do so here.
