Pattern description
Capture the tenderness of early parenthood with this 96×96 stitch counted cross-stitch pattern featuring a soft, peachy-toned baby hand. The warm palette—rendered in 25 DMC thread colors ranging from pale cream to rich coral and brown—creates gentle dimension and natural skin tone variation that brings the tiny fingers to life.

Perfect for nursery décor or as a heartfelt gift for new parents, this needlework captures an intimate moment in heirloom quality.
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.
