This fine art counted cross-stitch pattern entitled The Children of Edward Holden designed from a painting by Sir Joshua Reynolds shows a nanny and three elegantly dressed children gathering flowers together in a lush, shaded woodland setting under a soft, dappled sky. The crisp afternoon air carries the rustic scent of damp moss, wild ivy, and sweet garden roses, capturing the stately park at its best. Like myself, you will be captivated by the way the golden sunlight filters through the dense canopy to illuminate the delicate silk gowns and rich velvet coats. No doubt, recreating these classical textures and earthy tones stitch by stitch will bring a beautiful sense of history to your canvas. 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.
