This fine art counted cross-stitch pattern, entitled Love's Labour Lost, is based on a painting by Edwin Longsden Long and depicts Egyptian life, featuring beautiful women engaged in their daily tasks and routines. The detail on the back wall is breathtaking, with an intricate design that astonishes the eye. Three women are lounging on a rug while being waited on by hand and foot. 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. Our charts are in black and white only.
