This fine art counted cross stitch pattern entitled The Friendly Gossips designed from a painting by Eugene de Blaas shows a group of three women folding their laundry although two them are involved in gossip about the man who is entering the room and may have been privy to their whispers about him. Although they are engaged in gossip, it is clarified in their minds that it is friendly gossip and not something untoward. 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.
