This fine art counted cross stitch pattern entitled Christmas Eve designed from a painting by John Everett Millais shows a late afternoon winter scene in a field where the birds are touching down to find their last bit of food before night descends. The glow of the sun is fading and the scene is peaceful and quiet as all that lives and breathes settles in for the night until Christmas Day arrives. There is sort of a reverence by nature as even it knows the significance of Christmas Eve. If you would like a pattern that evokes peacefulness and calm, and you like snow, this pattern would be perfect! 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.
