The Mist and All Cross Stitch Sampler Pattern
$10.00
I love the Dixie Willson poem “The Mist and All” that starts, “I love the fall/The mist and all./
I like the night owl’s/Lonely call—” and ends with the narrator enjoying a cozy fire within.
In my design, owl, crow, and mushroom converge on a cloudy night with a
golden moon above, evoking autumn’s quiet evening beauty.
