This fine art counted cross-stitch pattern entitled A Rest in the Fields designed from a painting by Jules Adolphe Breton shows a young peasant woman taking a peaceful nap on a bundle of harvested wheat beside a lush, flowering field. The scene is definitely pastoral, and if you look closely, you can almost smell the sweet scent of dry grain and wild blossoms floating on a warm summer breeze. Every gentle shadow captures the tranquil mood of afternoon light across her resting pose, making this idyllic country scene a serene joy to stitch. Our patterns use only full cross stitches. No blended colors are used. Instead, we use a variety of solid colors to achieve a more realistic effect.
