Spring Inspr'd Stitcher
CROSS STITCH PATTERN READY TO DOWNLOAD, DESIGNED BY Tempting Tangles

Here's Spring Inspr'd Stitcher, a cross stitch design by Tempting Tangles featuring a maiden stitching near a castle window. The diamond paned glass window is open, in the distance, one can see the rolling landscape.

 

The lady is holding a needle and a rectangular embroidery frame. Her dress has wonderful detail including laced shoulders and arms.

 

The design's layout is in the manner of a Medieval illuminated manuscript, in three sections. The central part encompasses the portrait, while the window openings themselves frame a secondary image, the landscape in the distance.

Surrounding the portrait is an elaborate decoratiive border motif above and a line of text in medieval scripture at the base. It reads:

 

"Spring inspir'd, linen blossoms in silken paradise"

 

Note: Chart in 12 sections. To increase the contrast between the colors in areas that are fully cross stitched, the chart is provided in color, with black and white symbols on color background.
