This fine art counted cross stitch pattern, entitled Mary Magdalene in the Grotto, designed from a painting by Jules Lefebvre, shows Mary Magdalene reclining and rearing back to stretch against a large boulder she is using as a pillow to rest her head. Her thick auburn hair is spilling out over the rock, and she seems to be free, free to enjoy her solitude and freedom of not having to be hampered by confining clothing. She is in a private grotto alone, and there is no one there to point a finger. This is a beautiful presentation and worthy of stitching. Only full cross stitches are used in our patterns. No blended colors are used. Instead, we use a variety of solid colors to achieve a more realistic effect.
