This fine art counted cross stitch pattern entitled Mending Little Socks designed from a painting by Francois-Louis Lanfant de Metz shows a daughter who is in the company of her mother who is busily darning the socks of her much younger children. The daughter is studying her mother's technique so that perhaps in the future, she will be able to take over this task. It appears to be a fine spring day and the glow of the sun is shining through. The tendrils of the vine hanging overhead add a soft touch to this beautiful scene. 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.
