The
design for this counted cross stitch kit is taken from a wonderful
book by Walter Crane entitled 'Flora's Feast: A Masque of Flowers'
which was first published in 1889, and is probably the most famous
of all his works. It features the 'margarete' or daisy. The original
book contains 40 colour illustrations, each depicting a personified
flower, beginning with the goddess Flora calling them from their winter
sleep. Each flower appears in the book in the sequence they actually
appear in the garden, the Christmas Rose providing the beautiful finale
to this stunningly original work.
The design is worked
on 28 count Zweigart Cashel linen and the worked area measures 10
x 7½ ins (25.5 x 19 cm).
The counted cross
stitch kit contains threads (floss), fabric, needle, chart and instructions.
