Gothic Light
CROSS STITCH PATTERN READY TO DOWNLOAD, DESIGNED BY Barbara Ana Designs

Such a wild untamed look, aren't these eyes the most amazing eyes ever designed in cross stitch?

Is this character - definitely a she - human or a hallucination?

It looks as if she were appearing ghostlike though a black lace doily. Or she was a butterfly with black and navy wings morphing into a human being.

And why the candles on her head, hardly emitting any light, like a gothic and dark twin to scandinavian Santa Lucia?

This fascinating design will certainly leave many questions unanswered, yet like many artistic works, it is precisely the mystery of it all that makes it so appealing. 

The cross stitch piece is worked on 32ct Murano Basalt Splash evenweave, in a taupe/grey color printed with random white dots adding to the overall feeling of eeriness.
