Pattern description
A grid of jewel-toned squares creates a bold, cheerful mosaic perfect for modern interiors. This 234 x 234 stitch counted cross stitch pattern uses 25 DMC thread colors to build an intricate rainbow effect, with reds, oranges, yellows, greens, blues, and purples dancing across the composition in an evenly distributed, hypnotic rhythm.
Advanced stitchers will appreciate the technical complexity of managing 25 color changes while maintaining consistent coverage across the full count. Working this cushion cover on 14-count Aida fabric yields approximately 17 x 17 inches of finished needlework—ideal for a throw pillow or decorative accent. The balanced color palette ensures the piece complements both contemporary and eclectic home décor, while the geometric mosaic design offers visual interest from every angle. Whether as a personalized handmade gift or a rewarding solo project, this pattern delivers impressive results that showcase your stitching skill.
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.
