Mother Hens & Chicks
CROSS STITCH PATTERN DESIGNED BY Perrette Samouiloff
An arrangement of tulips, periwinkle and daisies form a graceful wreath surrounding the spring scene by Perrette Samouiloff.
Mother hens are busy pecking grain, while keeping a close eye on the chicks exploring the farmyard and foraging among the flowers. A little girl watches in awe and manages to catch a baby chick.
Check the fun positions and movement of the hen and chicks. One of them is looking us straight in the eye. The large hen in the foreground adds extra perspective to the design.
The chart includes some fractional stitches, for detail of the hens feathers and beaks, as well as for creating delicate shades in leaves and petals.
The shape of the design is round, it could be framed into a hoop.
