Pattern description
This 100 x 100 counted cross-stitch pattern captures the traditional Passover Seder plate in luminous detail, featuring the six ceremonial foods arranged on a blue oval platter. The composition showcases orange-yellow charoset, green bitter herbs, brown shank bone, pale egg, and golden potato in their symbolic positions, each rendered in warm golden and earthy hues against the cool blue background. The Hebrew text "Happy Passover" arches above, completing a design rich with cultural significance and visual balance.
The 32-color DMC palette creates depth through subtle blending of warm and cool tones, giving the food items a three-dimensional quality that lifts them from the background. Advanced stitchers will appreciate the intricate color transitions and shading required to achieve this effect, particularly in rendering the textures of the charoset and fresh vegetables with realistic dimension.
Perfect for spring displays or as a meaningful gift for Jewish households, this needlework serves dual purposes—honoring a cherished holiday tradition while creating heirloom-quality home decor. Stitched on standard 14-count Aida fabric, the 100 x 100 stitch count produces a manageable finished piece ideal for framing above a dining room sideboard during Passover season or year-round.
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.
