Color Therapy Cross Stitch Pattern

This glorious floral cross stitch pattern by Barbara Ana Designs is an explosion of happy colors.

The bouquet is stitched using 42 different colors in the manner of a painting to express all the subtle color shades of the flowers. The chart comes with two different colorways, one vivid and bright (photos of stitched model), the other more muted.

The model was stitched directly onto a denim shirt using waste-canvas and with the design rotated. The design would also look great stitched on a cushion. The bright colors are compatible with a range of background fabrics.
