The cross-point™ Collection
Pattern: TOPKAPI ("X")
Persian and Florentine velvets and silks are among the most sumptuous textiles ever created. Our Topkapi pattern is loosely based on a richly embroidered Medieval church vestment of which many examples are in museums around the world. Edged by a repeating diaper pattern, the center panel consists of a Greek cross element surrounded by a quatrefoil of tulips.

Available in one pillow size:
Large Square TOPKAPI - #TOP - 21" x 21" (53 x 53 cm)
NEW COLOR 09 (added December 2012)
Each kit contains large charts in colors and symbols, fabric, luxurious French tapestry wool, needles, and detailed instructions specific to the individual pattern, including additional charts for outlines and other details where helpful. "E" patterns are especially easy for beginners; "X" patterns are recommended for experienced stitchers because separate design elements require more careful counting across background areas. Unclassified patterns can be stitched by anyone with a little practice. Also included are our cross-point™ Technique sheets. Kits do not include backing or trim.
For Custom Colors and Custom Upholstery, please see Custom Services.
This pattern is for experienced stitchers because it involves intense counting, and, to make it easier, we include a Special Chart for the center elements outline. Custom colors not available.
