Pattern description
Create a sophisticated fruit motif with this 61 x 61 counted cross stitch pattern featuring a pale blue-grey pear crowned by delicate green foliage. The palette of 17 DMC thread colors blends soft lavenders, sage greens, golden yellows, and warm browns to capture the gentle, understated quality of a botanical study. The composition emphasizes subtle color layering that brings dimension to the fruit's form, making this intermediate-level design rewarding for stitchers ready to work with varied thread selections and shading techniques on standard Aida fabric.
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.
