Pattern description
This counted cross-stitch design features a striking symmetrical layout with burgundy and navy blue geometric motifs arranged in concentric frames. The central medallion showcases a star-burst pattern surrounded by repeating diamond and cross elements, creating visual depth through multiple border layers. At 205 x 205 stitches, this project delivers impressive impact while remaining achievable for experienced stitchers willing to invest time in the methodical construction.
Stitched on even-weave Aida fabric with just two DMC thread colors, this cushion cover achieves rich, sophisticated results through clever color placement rather than complex palette mixing. The jewel-toned burgundy and navy combination evokes traditional folk-art aesthetics, making it ideal for adding warmth to contemporary or eclectic home décor. Advanced stitchers will appreciate the geometric precision required, while the limited color count simplifies thread management. Perfect as a handmade heirloom gift or as a decorative accent that transforms any room with timeless needlework charm.
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.
