Pattern description
This 88 x 88 stitch counted cross-stitch rose captivates with its rich magenta and coral palette, rendered in 20 DMC thread colors that create luminous depth across layered petals. The composition captures a single bloom in three-quarter view, with cream and golden highlights that give dimensional movement to the velvety surface. The intermediate skill level makes it accessible to needleworkers ready to expand beyond basic projects while still enjoying a manageable completion timeline. The color transitions—from deep burgundy through warm rose to soft ivory—demonstrate how thoughtfully selected thread combinations bring botanical subjects to life on Aida fabric. This jewel-toned approach differs sharply from pale pastels, making it ideal for adding warmth to contemporary décor or creating a sophisticated gift for flower enthusiasts. Stitched on 14-count Aida, the finished piece measures approximately 6.3 x 6.3 inches, offering a rewarding needlework experience with professional results.
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.
