This flower counted cross stitch pattern in The Black Collection entitled Bitter Sweet Oranges on a Branch designed from a painting by Pierre-Joseph Redoute shows a branch laden with oranges, some ripened and some un-ripened along with a lovely growth of orange blossoms toward the bottom of the branch. The oranges are orange in color with golden overtones, and the gorgeous leaves are variegated. This makes a stunning display of citrus beauty on a black background, and it’s a wonderful addition to our collection. Just imagine this in your farmhouse kitchen! 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.
