Up in the Air
CROSS STITCH PATTERN READY TO DOWNLOAD, DESIGNED BY Barbara Ana Designs

Another amazing lady designed by Barbara Ana. Head in the clouds and surrounded by hot air balloons, she seems to be soaring towards the sky, reaching out for the sun.

The color scheme is all browns and golds with contrasting turquoise touches. The lady's skirt is lushly embelished with sunflower motifs. We find maybe a little Mexican influence in this cross stitch design? 

The cross stitch pattern lists 11 DMC floss colors and is stitched on 32 count linen, either in a solid light brown (Amber linen from Witchelt/Permin) or with a slightly marbled effect (Vintage Country Mocha (3009) from Zweigart). Once finished, the stitched area measures about  8 x 8 inch square.
