This fine art counted cross-stitch pattern entitled The Promised Rose designed from a painting by Francois Martin-Kavel shows an elegant woman in profile wearing a wide-brimmed straw hat with a large crimson bow, her hand delicately holding a single pale rose against her ornate lace bodice. Notice the romantic symbolism here of the rose and the sophisticated layering of silk, lace, and velvet textures. A stunning atmosphere is created with a blend of warm rose golds and deep, shadowy ochres, illuminated by the bright, pop of the red ribbon and the soft, creamy highlights of her pearls. The scene captures the essence of a secluded stone balcony overlooking a mist-covered lake. 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.
