The Starry Night Counted Cross Stitch Bookmark Kit

The Starry Night is a counted cross stitch kit for making your own bookmark inspired by Vincent van Gogh’s painting of the same name. Deep blues, bright stars, the Moon, flowing lines across the night sky, and the dark silhouette of a cypress capture the recognizable mood of the original in a compact format. A palette of eighteen colors helps recreate the composition’s contrasts and sense of movement.

Skill level: Starter. This kit is best suited to stitchers who already have basic embroidery skills or want to reinforce them with a compact project.

Please note: this is a counted cross stitch kit. The design is not printed on the fabric; stitch it using the color chart with symbols.

How do you finish the bookmark?

We recommend joining both pieces around the edges with buttonhole stitch, but the final finish is up to you — create as inspiration guides you.

Is the design printed on the fabric?

No. The design is not printed on the fabric. This is a counted cross stitch kit: count the squares and stitch the design using the chart with symbols.
