Pattern description
This 88 x 88 stitch counted cross stitch captures delicate lavender blooms in rich purple hues, paired with gentle sage and olive greens. The hanging flower cluster composition flows naturally downward, creating elegant vertical movement across an intermediate skill-level design that rewards careful attention to color blending and shading.
Stitched with 17 DMC thread colors, the pattern balances deep amethyst and mauve tones in the flower spikes against softer celadon greens in the foliage. The muted, cool palette evokes a sophisticated botanical mood—perfect for those seeking a more refined floral needlework project than bright, cheerful alternatives.
Ideal for framing above a bedroom shelf or displayed in a cottage kitchen, this lavender design works beautifully on 14-count Aida fabric. The completed piece measures approximately 6 x 6 inches, making it a manageable intermediate project for stitchers ready to advance beyond simpler florals while exploring nuanced color work.
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.
