A counted cross stitch pattern. One of two patterns inspired by the designs on the back of a bronze mirror found at Trelan Bahow, Cornwall. It dates back to the 1st century BCE and is now housed in the British Museum.

Summer Solstice is the longest day of the year and the sun is at the height of its powers. This is reflected in the hot fiery shades in the threads.
