This fine art counted cross-stitch pattern entitled A Careful Stitch designed from a painting by Emile Munier shows a young girl with a blue headband focusing intently as she works a needle through bright red fabric. In creating this, Munier wanted to highlight the quiet diligence of youth, no doubt finding beauty in the soft light of his French home. The palette is a blend of deep umbers and vivid crimsons. It captures the scent of fresh cotton and the warmth of a still evening. This pattern would be perfect for those of you who remember the days when you were taught how to sew by your mom or your teacher. Only full cross stitches are used in our patterns. No blended colors are used. Instead, we use a variety of solid colors to achieve a more realistic effect.
