This fine art counted cross stitch pattern entitled Kitty Packe designed from a painting by Henry William Beechey shows a beautiful young woman who has been interrupted from her reading by a domestic call. She is posing in a chair next to a window covered in deep orange/red drapery, and a beautiful landscape lies just beyond the window. This scene is just before her wedding to Charles William Packe, a Member of Parliament. It is a very flattering rendition of Kitty indeed, and the painting was commissioned by her mother to catch the eye of her intended groom. 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.
