Pattern description
This 90x90 stitch counted cross-stitch pattern captures delicate purple bellflowers in full bloom, rendered in rich jewel-tone blues and magentas accented with bright yellow centers. The composition features overlapping blooms connected by a graceful green stem, creating an elegant botanical study that works beautifully on ivory Aida fabric.

Whether you're drawn to spring florals or year-round nature-inspired designs, this bellflower pattern delivers satisfaction through its balance of complexity and achievable stitching goals.
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.
