This fine art counted cross stitch pattern, entitled The Blind Girl, designed from a painting by John Everett Millais, depicts an older girl who is blind sitting with a sighted child, and they are enjoying the great outdoors. The younger of the two spots the breathtaking view of a rainbow in the background and can enjoy and appreciate the beauty of it by sight. At the same time, although the blind girl cannot see, she is able to enjoy how it is pictured in her mind and actually experiences the presence of the rainbow by using other keen senses. She is being affected by it, which is evident by the look of bliss on her face. The colors in this scene are very bright and bold. 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.
