Fall Rainstorm
CROSS STITCH PATTERN READY TO DOWNLOAD, DESIGNED BY Perrette Samouiloff

Two children battle the wind and rain, their umbrellas almost blowing them upwards, together with autumn leaves. A little puppy trots along.

Forming a delicate background, flowering wild grass turned to seeds is the sole element of landscape,   

The sobriety of color - the chart only uses 3 colors of embroidery floss - contributes to evoking the autumn atmsophere.

The pattern can be stitched as a whole and displayed banner like. You can also stitch each motif of the children individually (see last picture).

Fractional stitches (3/4 cross stitch in one strand) are used for the silhouettes of the puppies, creating a lighter coverage for the legs in the background.
