Pattern description
This counted cross-stitch pattern captures the essence of fall with a gorgeous interplay of warm rustic tones. Deep burgundy leaves curl gracefully around golden-orange berries and earthy brown branches, while touches of sage green add subtle contrast. The composition radiates seasonal warmth through its jewel-toned reds, honeyed golds, and rich chocolate accents.
The 165 x 165 stitch count with 20 DMC thread colors makes this an advanced needlework project that rewards patient stitchers with intricate detail and depth. The decorative golden border frames the botanical motif perfectly for framing or displaying as autumn décor. Whether you're stitching gifts for the fall season or adding a warm accent to your home, this pattern delivers sophisticated color blending and dimensional shading that brings the harvest palette to life on classic 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.
