Description A detail from one of the various bird and plant collages  Henri Matisse loved doing – how do we know? Look how brilliantly colored they are and the birds all appear to be smiling !  Measures 12″ x 12″ – the smaller of several sizes – on 14, 16 or 18 mesh mono deluxe needlepoint canvas. Wonderful for all skill levels and nearly any type of thread.  Use all tent stitches or add some specialty stitches. Please indicate your mesh preference in the note section at checkout. Will send the standard 14 mesh if you do not provide a preference.  Great if you have a stash of threads. We are happy to provide easy-to-use durable lovely silk threads or silk/merino wool blend or a mix of threads for different effects  to help complete.  Available in alternate sizes.
