Pattern description
This counted cross stitch pattern captures an ornate Faberge egg rendered in rich jewel tones with deep blue dominating the composition. Clusters of delicate flowers in coral, pink, and soft yellow adorn the surface, creating an intricate baroque-inspired design. The egg's proportioned form rests on sturdy legs, presenting a symmetrical and elegant silhouette against the cream background.
Stitching this advanced-level needlework requires patience and precision across 119 × 119 stitches using 46 distinct DMC thread colors. The palette of sapphire, emerald, gold, and burgundy threads combines to build depth and dimension in the floral motifs. Worked on Aida fabric with the included printable PDF chart, this piece suits experienced stitchers seeking a challenging project. Upon completion, the finished needlework makes a striking framed accent for a traditional or eclectic interior, or serves as a treasured heirloom gift celebrating artistry and Russian imperial heritage.
Stitch planning checklist
- Measure your fabric against the stitch count to confirm finished size.
- Sort floss by symbol before you start; pre-thread a few needles for speed.
- Work in small blocks to keep counting accurate and spot mistakes early.
- Backstitch at the end of each session so outlines stay crisp.
