Some whales keep to the ocean. This one has other ideas — it drifts through a pastel sky, and the flying whale cross stitch pattern (PDF) pins that daydream to cloth. A plump blue body, a soft spout, one small pink blush on the cheek: he is completely at ease with the impossible.
Teal, blush, cream and gold scatter around him like torn paper clouds, and the same soft waves ripple below — because up here, the sky and the sea are one place. Two Kreinik threads give the spout a faint shimmer. It reads as calm: a whale nursery cross stitch that asks nothing of the room but a quiet corner and good light.
