There are several examples of Fleur -de- Lis pieces in the CanvasWork line. Below are two smaller pieces and two larger pieces. All are on 13 count and come in various color combinations although all are of the same palette: golden yellow, bright blues and intense red. In each case the motif is shaded in two tones. Any combination would make a lovely pillow grouping. Hex canvas $48.00, small sq. 48.00. Large with fleur -e-lis insert 176.00 and repeating fleur-de-lis is $144.00 All prices reflect the Trunk Show discount of 20% off. More questions or you like to purchase one?

According to Wikipedia:

In North America, the fleur-de-lis is often associated with areas formerly settled by France, such as Quebec, St. Louis, Louisville and Louisiana, and with French-speaking people in other Canadian provinces.

While the fleur-de-lis has appeared on countless European coats of arms and flags over the centuries, it is particularly associated with the French monarchy in a historical context, and continues to appear in the arms of the King of Spain and the Grand Duke of Luxembourg, members of the House of Bourbon. It remains an enduring symbol of France that appears on French postage stamps, although it has never been adopted officially by any of the French republics. According to French historian Georges Duby, the three leaves represent the medieval social classes: those who worked, those who fought and those who prayed.
