This fine art counted cross stitch pattern entitled Striking Beauty designed from a painting by Louise Abbema shows a beautiful raven-haired beauty with dark eyes, lush lips, and high cheekbones. In fact, her look is quite what one would call "exotic" and out of the ordinary, and she definitely is someone who would be noticed while out in the public eye. She is wearing a band of flowers in her hair that accent her dress which is lime green with a pink flowered corsage. 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.
