This fantasy counted cross stitch pattern entitled Turtle Island shows a very large turtle sprouting an island on top of his back. Dirt formed on his shell, seeds dropped by birds in the sky landed on that bed of dirt and trees started to sprout. No one knows if humans are inhabiting this island, but I am quite sure animals have sought refuge there. The sky is overcast with the threat of rain, and the turtle is apparently on the move to find higher ground. Only full cross stitches are used in our patterns. No blended colors are used. We only use an abundance of solid colors as it produces a more realistic effect.
