This winter counted cross stitch pattern entitled Faggot Gatherers in Winter designed from a painting by Remigius van Haanen shows people gathering branches, sticks and twigs to take home and use for firewood to heat their homes. The sky is beautifully overcast with peeks of blue, and there are traces of snow still left on the ground from a harsh cold winter. The trees that have lost their leaves are bearing the brunt of the season while those with leaves huddle in with the barren to shield the other trees from the wind. The lovely shades of gray are wonderful to look at and add an air of coziness to the scene. 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.
