Persian Tile
Area 5 -- Inner Large Square

Using one strand of Color E, stitch the diagonal multiple cross in this square. The square is eight threads by eight threads and the diagonal multiple cross is six threads long so point 1 of the multiple cross is diagonally up one thread from the lower right corner of the square.

Using three strands of Color D, stitch the right angle crescents on either side of the diagonal multiple cross. Remember all subsequent stitches pass over previous stitches.
