This fine art counted cross stitch pattern entitled Picking Blossoms designed from a painting by Emile Claus shows three young girls picking white blossoms to make a posy bouquet or perhaps a wreath of flowers to put in their hair. They are close to a pond and tall hedges frame the background that act as guardians shielding the children from harm. The children are engaged in a simple yet innocent task that they do not see as a task, but it's something they do out of pure enjoyment as they can appreciate the wonder and beauty of nature. Only full cross stitches are used in our patterns. No blended colors are used. Instead, we only use an abundance of solid colors to produce a more realistic effect.
