Pattern description
A striking amaryllis bloom dominates this 96x96 stitch counted cross-stitch design, rendered in bold red-orange petals that practically leap from the cream Aida fabric. The jewel-toned color palette—deep crimsons, burnt oranges, and forest greens—creates dramatic visual contrast against the light background, giving this intermediate-level pattern a sophisticated, gallery-quality presence that suits modern or traditional décor equally well.
With 29 DMC thread colors layered across the design, stitchers will appreciate the intermediate skill challenge without overwhelming complexity. The generous stitch count allows for satisfying detail work, particularly in the flower's delicate white stamens and the rich gradient shading that gives the petals three-dimensional depth. This is an ideal project for needleworkers looking to refine their color-blending and shading techniques.
Perfect as a framed botanical accent for living spaces or bedrooms, this amaryllis pattern captures the exotic elegance of the bloom in its full glory. The design works beautifully as a gift for plant enthusiasts or as a statement piece that brings warmth and luxury to wall décor. The downloadable PDF chart comes ready to print, making it simple to start stitching immediately on your preferred Aida count 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.
