Pattern description
This 140×140 stitch dahlia radiates warmth with its layered coral and deep rose petals highlighted by golden-yellow accents toward the center. Set against a soft green background, the flower commands immediate visual impact through rich color gradation that moves from pale peachy tones to vibrant magenta at the petal edges. The 30-color DMC palette creates dimensional depth, making this intermediate-level design rewarding for stitchers ready to move beyond basic projects while still maintaining steady progress across the canvas. Perfect for spring or summer décor, this counted cross stitch pattern captures the generous, romantic form that dahlias are beloved for in gardens and floral arrangements. The bold, warm tones work beautifully in traditional, cottage, or contemporary spaces, and the finished piece makes a striking framed heirloom or personalized gift for gardening enthusiasts. On standard Aida fabric, the 140-stitch count yields a manageable finished size ideal for display without overwhelming smaller walls.
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.
