This fine art counted cross stitch pattern entitled The Sweet Siesta of a Summer Day designed from a painting by John William Godward shows a woman reclining on a couch as she is being serenaded by the soft music of a flutist. Her intentions are to fall asleep to the calming melody. The colors in the room are very warm and appealing to the eye, and you can practically feel the gentle breeze coming off the veranda. This would be a pleasurable stitch and certainly worthwhile. 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.
