Letistitch "Christmas Lighthouse" Cross Stitch Kit - L9993

Christmas also arrives at the coast in this spectacular cross-stitch kit from Letistitch, based on an illustration by artist Marcello Corti. The scene shows a lighthouse lit up on a rocky headland, decked out for the holidays with a large holly wreath and a red ribbon on its facade, garlands on the balcony, and a red stripe running along its base. At its feet, a snow-covered fir tree adorned with gold and red baubles stands surrounded by gifts wrapped in colorful paper, while a pelican and a seagull watch the scene from the rocks. The sea crashes in foamy waves against the shore, and the sky displays an extraordinary sunset, with orange and violet clouds on one side and greenish auroras over the deep blue of night on the other.

The richness of the design lies in that double sky and the contrast between the snow, the moving water, and the warm light escaping from the lighthouse lantern. It is stitched on 16 ct grayish-blue Aida, a very wise choice because the background directly provides the marine and nocturnal atmosphere, in addition to giving excellent definition to the details. With a vertical format of 23 x 32 cm, the result is a piece with great presence once framed. An intermediate-level project, perfect for lovers of the sea, lighthouses, and Christmas scenes that are out of the ordinary.
