Pattern description
This counted cross-stitch pattern captures a pair of slate-blue gardening gloves adorned with vibrant embroidered flowers—yellow sunflowers, coral-pink blooms, and red accents emerging from rich green stems. The composition radiates a cottage-garden aesthetic, with scattered blossoms floating in the negative space around the gloves' contoured form.
The 83×83 stitch count and 19 DMC thread palette create a richly textured needlework project suited to intermediate stitchers. Cool blues and grays form the glove body, while warm golds, corals, and true reds draw the eye to the floral details. Worked on Aida fabric, this design celebrates the practical elegance of garden work—ideal for framing in a gardener's studio, kitchen, or potting shed.
