Little Rain Cloud Magnet
Little Rain Cloud Magnet Pattern
Materials Used:
7 count Plastic Canvas Mesh

Needloft Yarn:
#35 Sail Blue - 7 yds.
#38 Gray - 3 yds.

To Finish Project:
#310 Pearl Cotton Black Floss - 1 yd.
#35 Sail Blue for Rain Strings - 13 inches
4" strip of sticky backed magnet

Stitches Used:
Continental Stitch
Scotch Stitch
French Knot
Straight Stitch
Overcast Stitch

Instructions:
Cut 1 piece of canvas 31X21 threads (30X20 holes) according to the pattern. Cut 5 pieces of canvas 4X4 threads (3X3 holes) for the raindrops. Follow the patterns to stitch the project. Stitch the face onto the cloud using #310 Pearl Cotton Black thread, french knot the eyes and straight stitch the mouth according to the pattern. Overcast the entire project (cloud & raindrops) in sail blue. Cut 5 strips out of the 13 inches of sail blue yarn to hang the raindrops from the cloud (they can be any length you want - adding up to 13 inches). You can hang the raindrops from anywhere on the cloud or you can use the finished project picture as a guide. Put a little glue on the back of the cloud, we used Aleene's Clear Gel Tacky Glue, and then put the sticky backed magnet piece on top of that. Press down really hard and possibly even put a heavy book on top so it will keep it stuck. We found that using some glue helped keep it the magnet on better and longer.
