A Grecian beauty clasps a bouquet of pink roses to her heart, her gold-banded teal gown draped in serene folds about her as she dreams of days last spent with her one true love in this very topiary garden. There are no beads on this design -- the textural interplay of carved stone, shimmering silk and soft rose petals is embellishment enough.

According to Greek mythology, muses are the ageless spirits who inspire and watch over us as we create. What better place for muses to reside than a cool, green topiary garden?

Rose Arbour is a mirror image of the earlier design "The Rose of Sharon", reflecting another beautiful woman beneath an arch entwined with full-blown roses. We think the appeal of both designs lies in the exquisite gowns-the elegant lines, the lavish details and the romatic sense of style. We also think, "Why doesn't anyone make dresses like these anymore?"

Suggested stitching on 32 count Natural or Belfast Raw Linen. Design area is 12-1/4 x 18-1/2". Stitch count is 195 x 295.
