“Mary, Mary, Quite Contrary, How does your garden grow? With silver bells and cockle shells and pretty maids all in a row.”

“Mary, Mary, Quite Contrary” counted cross stitch design begins the Designs for the Nursery Series.

This design can be finished as a pillow, framed, personalized with a Child’s name or as you like!

This counted cross stitch design uses three of the brand new “Color Variations” embroidery flosses from DMC.

Solid colors used in the design beautifully complement the Color Variations threads.

Two butterflies from JABC are used for embellishment. I used a bit of Rainbow Gallery Wisper #W90 for Mary's hair for added effect.
