Pattern description
A stunning counted cross stitch composition featuring a full-bloom rose rendered in rich crimson tones set against a light background. The jewel-toned petals showcase subtle color variation across seven DMC thread shades, creating dimension and depth within the compact 59 x 59 stitch count. The accompanying stem and leaves in muted green complete this classic floral motif with authentic botanical detail.
Perfect for stitchers seeking an accessible beginner project, this pattern combines simplicity with sophisticated color work. Whether stitched on 14-count Aida fabric for a small finished piece or enlarged on lower-count fabric for bolder impact, the design offers flexibility for your skill level and preferences. The jewel-toned palette makes it an ideal gift for gardening enthusiasts or a striking addition to bedroom décor, bringing romantic elegance to any needlework collection.
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.
