"They seek him here, they seek him there...that demmed, elusive Pimpernel!"
The simple wayside flower, the pimpernel, has become forever symbolic of the resilience, hope, and daring represented by the main character in Baroness Orczy's novel. The Scarlet Pimpernel has always been my favorite book of all time, and I never tire of reading of Sir Percy Blakeney's adventures rescuing French aristocrats from the guillotine in revolutionary France. Published in 1905, this Victorian novel captures the romance and adventure readers craved at that time. Pimpernel flowers can come in a wide variety of colors from white to orange, blue to lilac and more; but red is the most famous color. This deep, rich burgundy tonal celebrates this humble little flower in a velvety shade of wine that is elegant, regal, and saturated for satisfying stitches. Maybe it can revive a little hope in you while you craft, just like that simple little flower.
