Old English Hen is a beautiful tapestry design in a classic combination of terracotta, red, oatmeal and greens.

Choosing a Tapestry Frame
A tapestry frame is not essential but using one will help to prevent your work from going out of shape. Using a frame also makes it easy to resume stitching the next day or after a break.
We stock a range of British made no-sew tapestry clip frames which take only a few minutes to assemble. The canvas is attached by sturdy clips, allowing you to remove your canvas and switch between projects if necessary.
For Old English Hen, we recommend either a CF249 or a CF2412 frame. See all of our frames in our Frames and Accessories category.
