This fine art counted cross stitch pattern entitled Young Woman Contemplating Embracing Children designed from a painting by William Adolphe Bouguereau shows a young mother captivated by the tender moment of her children (who are siblings) sharing an embrace of affection and love for each other. She is relieved to know there is no rivalry between them as of yet, and she hopes it continues that way, although it is normal for children to have spats now and then. She would rather see them love each other than to be in mutual consternation and not getting along. The green feathery trees and shrubs offer a softness to the scenery as it frames the golden moment witnessed by the mother. 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.
