This piece was originally designed for a workshop in Tywyn, Wales. Two sets of alphabets are enclosed (Welsh and English). You may choose which ever you please and stitch the rows accordingly.

The dragon is adapted from an antique chart and it seemed the perfect choice for this design. Space is provided for you to add your name, town, and year.

And I loved visiting Wales. Although the names were unprounceable, it was a delightful place to visit!
