This landscape counted cross stitch pattern entitled Beautiful Ruins by Tracey Marvel Kramer shows lovely ruins taken over by nature that refuses to let its beauty wither away with age and time. The air is pungent with the intoxicating perfume of the flowers that are entwining around the columns and those floating on top of the water. One could imagine the presence of a beautiful nymph sitting next to one of the urns sprinkling herself with the perfumed water and enjoying being surrounded by such beauty. This pattern is for romantics like myself who can appreciate such beauty. If you’re like me, this romantic cross stitch would be the perfect one to stitch. 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.
