Pattern description
This 125x125 counted cross stitch pattern captures a lush cluster of deep burgundy grapes cascading from olive and chartreuse foliage, rendered in 28 DMC thread colors. The warm jewel-tone palette and dimensional shading with white highlights create depth and visual richness, making this intermediate-level design an engaging needlework project that rewards careful color placement and blending techniques. Perfect for fruit-themed kitchen décor or as a gift for gardening enthusiasts, this cross stitch works beautifully on 14-count Aida fabric and pairs traditional vineyard imagery with a sophisticated color mood. The composition's vertical orientation and naturalistic leaf arrangement add classical charm while the precise stitch count provides a satisfying, manageable finished piece ideal for framing or displaying as a decorative textile accent.
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.
