May - It's raining Violets
CROSS STITCH PATTERN READY TO DOWNLOAD, DESIGNED BY Gracewood Stitches
This May cross stitch pattern is part of Gracewood Stitches' Calendar Collection, with a different motif and color for each month of the year.
In the Designer's own words:
May is such a beautiful month in our part of the world. The frequent soft rains bring the first flush of wild flowers and in the woods the forest floor is often full of violets. Done in the Assisi style of only the background being stitched, I hope you'll find violets in the rain as appealing as I do!

While the whole pattern, with 3 rows of 4, will fit in a square - perfect for a cushion cover - you can combine these motifs in any way you like. Three in a row will make a pretty little frame to decorate a shelf. You can make other shapes such as 2 x 2 or rectangles of 2 x 3 or 4, depending on your project, such as decorating the side of a bag.
