This fine art counted cross-stitch pattern entitled The Old Roadside Inn designed from a painting by Edward Charles Williams shows travelers and horses resting by a bustling thatched tavern along a country lane. The day is sunny, with a large cloud mass hovering over the inn. The air is quiet except for the low murmurs of guests who have just arrived at the inn and the low whinnying of horses taking advantage of their time for rest and nourishment before leaving for the next destination. You can just imagine smelling the rich scent of damp earth, sweet timber smoke, and cool afternoon air drifting on a gentle breeze! Every delicate shadow captures rural beauty across the aged timber and lush trees, making this scene a true joy to stitch. 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.
