This fine art counted cross stitch pattern entitled The Jewel of the Fields designed from a painting by William-Adolphe Bouguereau shows children at best and at ease in a bucolic setting surrounded by nature. They have been out gathering wildflowers to make wreathes to put in their hair. They are dressed in peasant style clothing perfect for frolicking and playing in the fields as they run barefoot without an ounce of pain or complaint. The sky is somber and cotton-ball-white with the brown color of trees interjecting their blatant coloring against the vastness of the white sky. The green of the fields add a lushness to the scene topped off by the golden tips of the tall grasses. Only full cross stitches are used in our patterns. No blended colors are used. We only use an abundance of solid colors as it produces a more realistic effect.
