This fine art counted cross-stitch pattern entitled The New Bonnet designed from a painting by Harold Piffard shows an elegant young woman in a brilliant green Empire-line gown tying the satin ribbons of a stylish pink bonnet while an older, doting gentleman smiles approvingly beside her in a lavishly decorated Regency-style parlor. In creating this piece, Piffard wanted to capture a charming, lighthearted moment of fashion and domestic affection, finding inspiration in the refined manners and historical costumes of a bygone era. The visual palette is a magnificent collection of emerald greens, soft dusty pinks, and warm, gilded golds, beautifully accented by the rich mahogany and cream tones of the luxurious interior. The scene captures the bright, sophisticated atmosphere of a morning dressing room, where the scattered accessories and warm interactions create a feeling of delightful, timeless elegance. 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.
