First Light
CROSS STITCH PATTERN READY TO DOWNLOAD, DESIGNED BY Tempting Tangles

 

 

 

First Light is designer Deborah A. Dick of Tempting Tangles second take on depicting the Biblical story of Genesis, the Creation of the World.

 

Creation, the first piece and a colossal work, was stitched directly on the canvas. It renders the dramatic moment the earth comes to life, in minute detail with vast areas of twirling skies and water. 

 

First light is a smaller rendering and a companion to Creation. The glowing sun in one corner, and twirling sky in the opposite side are evocative of Genesis but definitely leave the spotlight on the Bible quote: "There was light".

 

Designer's tip:

"This design it is ideal for either cross stitch or needlepoint, and if stitched over 1 thread of fabric, is of ornament size.

Easter is the perfect time for this lovely, elegant design."

The pattern comes with both a color overview chart, and a detailed black and white chart. There are optional quarter stitches and French Knots, explained in the documentation.
