Boy on High Dive Cross Stitch Chart

Here is another Norman Rockwell - The Saturday Evening Post piece. This one was my son's favorite. It's called "Boy on High Dive" or "Second Thoughts". I don't think it was told what happens next here. I know I would have jumped.

This chart has the blue sky removed, so you would want to stitch this one some beautiful sky colored fabric. I left the dimensions of the original painting authentic, so there is quite a bit of space at the top and right that isn't stitched at all. There are full blank pages within the chart because of this. That isn't typically what I would have done after charting this, but it's such a famous piece. I thought you could mark the true edge and frame it accurately. So with that in mind, this piece is 270 x 366 stitches. It contains 75 colors.

What's Included

These designs are charted for 18-count fabric using two strands of thread, but can be adapted to any fabric count. Adjustments will affect the finished size and thread requirements. Each chart includes a 30% thread excess estimate. A fabric calculator is provided in the footer of each page; inputting the stitch count will determine the necessary fabric size.

All charts include a black and white chart, color chart, symbol guide, and shopping list. Exceptions apply to designs with fewer than 15 colors, those using only one skein per color, or those explicitly stated as including only one chart type in the listing description.
