This fine art counted cross-stitch pattern entitled The Letter designed from a painting by James Tissot shows an elegantly dressed woman pausing along a garden path, holding a letter amidst fallen autumn leaves. As someone who appreciates quiet moments like myself, I find the rich scent of damp earth and crisp autumn air simply breathtaking! The sound of the rustling leaves and a few of those falling in free fall, with the wind carrying them in a syncopated journey before hitting the ground, is priceless. The colors used in this scene are very rich, bold, and eye-catching, invoking a feeling of coziness. This scene is the epitome of Autumn in every way! Our patterns use only full cross stitches. No blended colors are used. Instead, we use a variety of solid colors to achieve a more realistic effect.
