Grapes and wheat, two ancient Christian symbols, present a powerful and timeless message in this gorgeous IHS cross design.
This design is from the Embroidery Pattern Catalogue, a publication offering iron-on embroidery transfers published in the mid to late 1800s by the Thomas Brown & Sons company of Manchester, England. Many of those traditional Christian patterns were hand-drawn reproductions of designs from the 13^th and 14^th centuries, a period when ecclesiastical art, especially the stunning English needlework, was in its glory.
When digitizing for machine embroidery we attempted to stay as true to the original design as possible.
