Pattern description
Stack colorful geometric shapes in this 13×13 stitch bookmark pattern that combines primary hues—vivid red, blue, yellow, and green—in a playful arrangement. Perfect for beginners, this compact counted cross-stitch uses just five DMC thread colors on standard Aida fabric, making it an ideal first project or quick gift. The stacked squares and angular forms create visual rhythm down the vertical format, ideal for marking pages or framing as a small artwork. Stitch one for yourself or create a set in matching colors to give as personalized bookmarks.
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.
