This people of color counted cross stitch pattern entitled Helen Williams, Black Glamor I shows Helen Williams, one of the most beautiful models of all time, modeling a dress that personifies her sophistication, exquisite beauty and timelessness we who admire her wish we could exemplify. She was credited as being a trailblazer for black fashion modeling. In Europe, specifically Paris France, she was considered to be exquisitely beautiful and received dozens of marriage proposals from men there, but in America (her own country), her looks were frowned upon, and she was considered to be too dark to be beautiful. Let me remove the splinters from their eyes because those who said this must be flippen blind!!! Her beauty is unrivaled! No blended colors are used in our patterns. We only use an abundance of solid colors as it produces a more realistic effect. Only full cross stitches are used in our designs.
