March - Aesthetic Sampler
CROSS STITCH PATTERN READY TO DOWNLOAD, DESIGNED BY Gracewood Stitches

In the words of designer Kathy Bungard:

March's entry in the Calendar Collection of patterns features a sampler.  Not a usual 'sampler' but one that is created in the style of the 'Aesthetic Movement' of the late 1800's.  During the duration of the movement in art there were so many beautiful designs reflected in not just art, but in practical items such as wallpaper and most definitely in fabrics.

I've always loved the panels that combine different aesthetic motifs that were used to catalogue them and became works of art themselves.I hope you'll enjoy stitching my tribute to images I love!

Creative Poppy says:

The cross stitch chart combines a background of tiny wallpaper-like motifs of stylized tulips, a horizontal strip of white lily flowers, an angled geometric frieze, a stencil style butterfly pattern and, on the right, a medallion with a floral motif of monochrome bluebells, stretched lengthwise in the Art Deco style.
