Pattern description
This counted cross-stitch rose captures the timeless appeal of a full-blown bloom in striking coral-red and hot pink, nestled among deep green leaves. The 108 × 108 stitch count creates a perfectly square, balanced composition that works beautifully on 14-count Aida fabric. With 25 DMC thread colors and intermediate-level skill required, the design balances manageable complexity with rich color gradation that brings dimensional depth to the petals.
Stitchers will appreciate the careful shading that moves from warm coral tones at the petal edges through vibrant scarlet to deeper burgundy in the shadows—a technique that rewards patience with realistic dimension. This pattern makes an ideal gift for nature lovers and works wonderfully as wall art, a cushion cover, or framed needlework. Its warm, romantic mood suits bedroom décor, a Valentine's keepsake, or a piece celebrating garden beauty year-round.
