"Tussie Mussie Lilies of the Valley" was designed from a antique greeting card for the floral counted cross stitcher! A tussie mussie comes from a Victorian term meaning a "small bouquet of flowers." Another term used is "nosegay." These were usually given for a special occasion or memory by someone who wants to acknowledge it to another. In Victorian times flowers were used to communicate a message and flowers symbolic meaning depending on the color and kind of flower given in the tussie mussie.
The giving of Lilies of the Valley means, "You Make My Life Complete."
The pattern would be beautiful stitched for yourself or for someone else. You will have a lovely cross stitch. The patterns can be mixed and matched, as they are each the same size.
The picture that you see is shown in the actual cross stitch pattern, not simply a photo.
You will receive a black and white symbols chart with an instruction sheet and a color photo for reference. The pattern will be emailed as a PDF file for you to print.
