Pattern description
This 47 x 47 stitch counted cross-stitch design captures a vibrant columbine blossom in rich burgundy and deep pink tones, accented with golden yellows that bring warmth to the composition. The traditional spurred flower form is rendered with graceful dimension, its petals layered and shaded to create depth against a clean white background. Greenery anchors the base, creating a botanically balanced piece that works beautifully on standard 14-count Aida fabric.
Stitchers will find this intermediate-level project engaging without being overwhelming—the 20 DMC thread colors require careful color changes, but the compact 47-stitch width makes it perfectly sized for small hoops or framing. The jewel-toned palette translates especially well into home décor, lending itself to woodland-inspired rooms or adding a pop of sophisticated color to traditional needlework collections. Whether stitched as a standalone accent piece or combined with other florals, this burgundy columbine delivers cottage-garden charm with a modern color sensibility.
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.
