A whole town has settled onto a slice of summer. This watermelon cross stitch pattern (PDF) lines terracotta roofs and lit windows along the rind, while glossy black seeds catch the light against graphite Aida.
Look once and you see fruit. Look again and a tiny twilight village has moved in. On dark fabric the glow does half the work — a small counted chart that reads like a folk tale told at dusk.
