It is made using the traditional colors of red and black. Blue is also sometimes used instead of black. It was a lot of fun, easy and I got most of it done at the meeting and finished it that night. The hardest part was getting the threads out of the aida with all that sizing! The original was on an evenweave of some sort and not aida, but the instructor was not sure what fabric was used so for this we used aida.
