Pattern description
This cheerful counted cross-stitch pattern features a charming daisy with a friendly yellow face and vibrant multicolored petals in turquoise, magenta, and sky blue. The playful expression and layered petal construction give the design personality that appeals to stitchers of all ages, while the branching green stem adds natural balance and visual interest to the composition.
At 93 x 93 stitches, this intermediate-level needlework uses 14 DMC thread colors to create depth and dimension through strategic color blocking. The decorative geometric border frames the flower beautifully and makes this piece ideal for framing or stitching onto pillows and small home décor items. Perfect for spring projects or as an uplifting gift, this design works well on 14-count Aida fabric and comes with a free printable PDF chart for easy reference at your stitching table.
Stitch planning checklist
