Pattern description
A classic red rose takes center stage in this 55 × 55 stitch counted cross-stitch pattern, rendered in warm, jewel-toned reds and fresh greens. The composition balances a full, rounded bloom against delicate leafwork, making it an intermediate-level needlework project that rewards careful color placement with striking visual depth.
Ten DMC thread colors create rich dimensional shading across the petals and foliage. The red tones shift from deep crimson to coral, while the leaves layer from forest green to lighter sage, building the three-dimensional form. This palette suits both modern and traditional home décor.
An ideal gift for a new home or special occasion, this rose pattern works beautifully framed or incorporated into a tote, pillow cover, or greeting card. Its manageable size and intermediate difficulty make it approachable for stitchers with some experience, while its classic elegance appeals across age groups and tastes.
