Pattern description
This 152 x 152 stitch pattern captures a full-bloom rose in vibrant hot pink tones, accented by lush olive and sage-green foliage that grounds the composition. The centered, layered petals create dimensional depth through shading techniques, while smaller buds in the upper corner add botanical authenticity. Twenty-two DMC thread colors build rich texture and movement throughout the design.
An advanced-skill needlework project, this rose pattern rewards experienced stitchers with its color complexity and shading work that transforms simple counted cross stitches into a lifelike floral study. Perfect for displaying on cream Aida or linen fabric, the design works beautifully as a framed piece, decorative pillow, or gift for gardeners and flower enthusiasts. The warm pink palette makes it equally suited for spring refresh décor, anniversary gifts, or treasured handmade keepsakes.
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.
