without having to leave your
seat! ‘GM-7184 Traveling

show off a setting sun and
the clever use of half cross
stitch gives this design a very
dreamy and romantic feel, just
like the city itself.
With a finished size of
32.5x23.5cm (12¾x9¼in),
this’ll be a masterpiece you
can’t wait to hang up on your
