Cross-stitch Riolis
Riolis is one of the most impressive collections cross-stitch in the world. The company is relevantly young - it is created in 1996 in Russia. There are three main collections “Create it yourself”, “Riolis Premium” and “Happy Bee”. Apart from these three main collections you will find a number of other enchanting cross-stitch pillows, embroidery bags, pin holders kits and many other beautiful and charming embroidery decorations.
Cross-stitch collection “Create it yourself”
The collection "Create it yourself" is very big and numbers hundreds of models. It is very rich in plot and subjects and immensely beautiful. In this collection you will find unique flowers, landscapes, animals and even modern designs and stylized images that are quite original and easy to fall in love with. In this collection you will find two types of thread – cotton stranded thread and woolen-acrylic thread. The cotton threads are Anchor branded and are really of highest quality. They are shiny and a bit fluffier than other threads. In many interviews The Riolis artists share with us that it is important for them to have the chance to show us the different levels of the drawing and how beautiful the embossing structure of the threads makes the embroidery really unique. Especially when the model has both cross-stitch and half stitch in it.
This way the drawing becomes very live, dynamic and very elegant. This is why some of the cross-stitch kits are created with a special woolen-acrylic thread that gives an even more embossed drawing surface to the embroidery. These threads are very different from the cotton stranded threads you are used to and when you touch them for the first time you will start to wander why the kit is assembled and created with them. But once you start working with these woolen-acrylic threads you will see the big difference the bigger emboss and the amazing and beautiful effect they give to the cross-stitch embroidery and you will fall in love with them. And we have to admit the colors are amazing as well and create such vivid and pretty combinations when put next to each other that you will love to work with them again and again. These threads are one of the reasons we say that “Create it yourself” is a one of a kind collection with an exquisite interest in the levels of the drawing and the way that colours are combined and sewed – one strand, two strands, cross-stitch or half stitch – and all this in an amazing dance of the drawing.
The collection “Create it yourself” includes a series of unforgettable cross-stitch embroideries on black fabric. They are truly unique and are masterpieces in the embroidery world. Our clients share with us that when they embroider them in person they look a great deal even prettier that they look on the photos. They become so pretty. The black fabric is treated and sewed the same way as the other colours of Aida fabrics. With this small difference that it is a bit harder to see the holes where the pin goes in and out because of the black colour of the fabric. There are many ways to make it easier for you. One way is to place some light underneath the fabric and then the holes are quite very well visible. Another practice is to place a white fabric on your knees or on the surface or table you are sitting and again the holes are much better found. It is nice to make things comfortable for yourself while you embroider to make the experience always better. You can read our articles about the ways to make things easy and even more pleasurable when you work over embroidery if you visit our page about embroideries and stitch types.

Aquarelle cross-stitch kits Riolis - Aquarelle Roses
The aquarelle collection of Riolis is created by some of the best artists and embroidery designers in the world. If you can look closer at them you will notice that the drawing is so vividly creted by a masterpiece work between colours and type of stitch – cross-stitch and half stitch. The design is created so that some areas with much intenser colours are cross-stitch and other areas that look a bit transparent are actually half stitch. This gives the embroidery as well various embossed levels and helps light shine different on each of them and this whole miracle combination shows off to become one of the best embroidery collections ever. The cross-stitch looks closer and fluffier and brighter and the half stitch looks further and looks silant and calm. The influence of these designs is truly amazing and they are so much fun to create. It is true that beauty has many shapes and colours and these masterpiece embroideries are some of the best we have seen so far.
But it is not only the stitches that give this series its unique looks. The artists have drawn the flowers juisy, heavy and full of scent. They look so pretty because the artist herself is impressed by their beauty and has menaged to recreate the love and admiration with realism but a great romantic mood as well. They are real, they are heave and in the best of the bloom but at the same time very light and vivid. The dark and light zones talk and talk and create a great dynamic in the image almost as if you can see the the bloom opening. We call them Aquarelle because some aquarelle artists draw in such technique.
