This fine art counted cross-stitch pattern entitled View of Delft designed from a painting by Johannes Vermeer shows the artist's Dutch hometown shimmering across the tranquil waters of the canal beneath a sky filled with large, dark rain clouds that look like they're on the verge of bursting anytime soon, while lighter, puffier clouds are in the background. You can almost catch the crisp scent of damp harbor air and wet stone as sunlight breaks through the overcast horizon. Notice the way the golden light illuminates the distant city roofs. The two small figures sitting on the shore show in comparison just how large the city across the waterway looks. 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.
