✨ Solenne - The Hush Before the New Year ✨
There is a magical moment just before the New Year begins, when the world seems to hold its breath.
The last stars of the old year shimmer softly, and every unspoken wish waits for its moment to shine.
Dressed in midnight blue and surrounded by whispers of gold, Solenne stands between what has been and all that is yet to come.
For a heartbeat, time belongs to her. ✨💙
Part of our Petite Muses collection, Nivelle is created with a lighter, more graphic approach to stitching. Her elongated silhouette, flowing lines and expressive negative space allow atmosphere and form to tell the story, while a carefully limited palette keeps the design elegant and approachable.
Worked entirely in DMC, she is designed to be a lighter, quicker stitch while still carrying the distinctive mood and storytelling of Cross Stitching Art.

Recommended Fabric:
A medium-dark, muted lavender-grey, smoky blue-grey, or soft slate-blue fabric, similar to the shade shown in the design preview, is recommended.
Subtle cool undertones of lavender, blue, or grey will beautifully complement the deep navy gown, antique gold accents, and delicate champagne highlights.
Avoid very light fabrics or extremely dark navy and charcoal shades, as these may reduce the visibility of the delicate stitching and darker details.
