To me, cross stitching is about exploring as
many different directions as possible, experimenting,
developing and constantly being curious. What
interests me, is the initial idea and the shaping
of the motive. Some of my results can be seen on this
website. Enjoy, Bodil.

This pattern is a bit "open", allowing the background to be seen. Also, using only a single color lends an "airy" feel to the whole scene.
