Pattern description
This counted cross-stitch design captures a stylish figure with golden blonde hair and a striking burgundy skirt paired with a cream-colored top. The palette balances warm skin tones against jewel-toned burgundy, creating visual impact in a compact 69 x 69 stitch count. At intermediate skill level, the pattern requires familiarity with color transitions and shading techniques to bring dimension to the character's face and form. With 15 DMC thread colors, you'll develop blending skills while working on standard Aida fabric. The finished piece makes an excellent addition to a child's room or serves as a thoughtful handmade gift for fashion-minded needleworkers who enjoy stitching contemporary figures with personality and style.
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.
