This fine art counted cross-stitch pattern, entitled Young Girl with a Fur Muff, designed from a painting by Francois Martin-Kavel, shows a charming young woman in winter attire, her hands tucked into a luxurious white muff, while a vibrant red rose pinned to her velvet hat mirrors the rosy glow of her cheeks. In creating this piece, the artist wanted to emphasize the softness of feminine beauty and the contrast between plush furs and delicate skin. The colors used here are sophisticated, deep sapphire blue and snowy whites, punctuated by the single, brilliant crimson of the flower and her warm, inviting smile. If you like and appreciate the cozy elegance of winter fashion, then this is the pattern for you. The scene reminds me of a crisp, frost-covered morning in the park. 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.
