Pattern description
A bold and graphic take on two plump red cherries connected by elegant green stems, this 50 x 50 stitch pattern delivers maximum impact with minimal complexity. The jewel-toned palette of just two DMC colors creates striking contrast against a clean white background, making each counted cross stitch count. Perfect for beginners seeking a satisfying small project that works beautifully on 14-count Aida fabric, this free design stitches up quickly while maintaining visual appeal. The crisp geometric rendering gives the cherries a modern, almost vintage-inspired charm ideal for kitchen décor, framed as a standalone piece, or combined with complementary patterns for a fruit-themed series.
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.
