Pattern description
This 46 x 46 stitch counted cross-stitch pattern captures a single blooming rose in soft pink tones with rich green foliage.

The finished 3-inch square piece showcases timeless appeal that complements both cottage and contemporary décor styles.
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.
