Tangled roots anchor this massive tree, as its branches soar heavenward, touching the stars. The Tree of Life stands as a bridge between worlds, and a connection between the visible world and the realm that lies just beyond our senses. The Celtic knots at the corners, and in its roots, are a reminder that everything is connected and has a place in the tapestry of Life.
Tree of Life Cross Stitch Pattern is based on artwork by Lisa Parker. The design measures 464 stitches wide by 466 stitches high. The cross stitch pattern spans 50 pages, and is printed double-sided, on unbound sheets in a clear plastic bag for protection. There is a color picture of the completed chart on the front page. The pattern itself is graphed in black and white symbols, and a table showing the DMC colors you'll need is included. This is a massive project that will provide you with many hours of enjoyment. It is not the best choice for beginners, but for the experienced stitcher, this will be an exciting challenge. Copyright - Heaven and Earth Designs, Inc.
