This fine art counted cross stitch pattern entitled A Small Town in the Rhine designed from a painting by August Eduard Schlieker shows a large façade of a building that appears to be a church as a cross is noted at one of the peaks. It is dawn and the sun is rising, the ground is covered with snow, and people are going about their daily duties and errands. The air is cold and you can see the smoke rising from several chimneys. What makes this scene especially charming is the golden greenish aura that gives the scene a rich olive tone, and that combined with the smoke filled chimneys creates a cozy feeling and a feeling of comfort to all of us who gaze into their world. We are mesmerized by it's beauty. 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.
