This fine art counted cross stitch pattern entitled The Bridesmaid, designed from a painting by John Everett Millais, shows a beautiful woman with an abundance of long, wavy, auburn hair. She is engaged in a ritual of passing wedding cake through a ring nine times. This would allow her to see a vision of her intended true love. The orange blossom she is wearing is a symbol of innocence and purity. The dark blue background plays a key role in highlighting the beauty of the color of her hair, which seems to dominate the scene. Only full cross stitches are used in our patterns. No blended colors are used. We only use an abundance of solid colors, as it produces a more realistic effect.
