Pattern description
A charming arrangement of sunflowers and red roses bursts from a white ceramic vase adorned with a heart motif, making this 59 x 59 stitch counted cross-stitch pattern a delightful focal point. The composition captures warm golden-orange blooms alongside deep crimson flowers, creating rich visual contrast against cool white pottery and lush green foliage that frames the bouquet.
Stitchers will encounter 29 DMC thread colors in this intermediate-level needlework project, offering a satisfying challenge without overwhelming complexity. The warm, saturated palette—from burnt oranges to deep reds—combined with emerald and sage greens creates an inviting, homespun aesthetic that suits both traditional and cottage-style decor perfectly.
Perfect for framing or stitching onto a decorative pillow, this floral arrangement works beautifully as a housewarming gift or bedroom accent. The vase's heart detail adds sentimental value, making it ideal for anniversaries or as a thoughtful present for garden enthusiasts and flower lovers seeking enduring needlecraft keepsakes.
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.
