This fine art counted cross-stitch pattern, entitled Woman with a Muff, designed from a painting by Francois Martin-Kavel, shows a graceful young woman bundled in a rich chocolate-brown fur hood and coat, carrying a sprig of holly against a snow-covered landscape. This scene emits a feeling of the cozy warmth of winter fashion and the sparkling beauty of the holiday season. In the background, we can see falling snow over a quiet, distant farmstead. The colors used are a blend of deep, velvety umbers and crisp whites, accented by the sharp, festive crimson of the holly berries and the soft, ivory lace peeking from her sleeves. If you appreciate the nostalgic charm of a snowy countryside and the classic elegance of a Victorian-inspired portrait, this is the pattern for you. 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.
