Pattern description
This intermediate-level counted cross-stitch pattern features a striking pair of blue birds rendered in cool jewel tones, with olive-green and coral accents creating dynamic visual contrast. The 114 x 114 stitch count offers a satisfying project size for needleworkers progressing beyond beginner techniques, while the six-color DMC palette keeps material costs manageable and execution straightforward. The composition's balanced yet animated arrangement makes this design equally appealing as a standalone framed piece or coordinated with other avian motifs in a gallery wall arrangement.
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.
