Pattern description
This counted cross stitch pattern captures a full-bloomed rose in romantic coral-pink tones against a serene blue-gray backdrop. With 157 x 157 stitches and 30 DMC thread colors, the design demands advanced needlework skills and rewards patient stitchers with dimensional shading and delicate petal detail. The cool muted background creates striking contrast with the warm floral subject, making this piece ideal for framed wall art or as a treasured keepsake. Stitched on 14-count Aida fabric, this pattern works beautifully in a 12x12-inch finished size and offers a meditative stitching experience for experienced crafters. The sophisticated color palette—ranging from deep rose reds to soft peachy highlights—translates beautifully into the standard DMC thread palette. Perfect as a romantic gift or heirloom piece, this rose design brings timeless floral elegance to any room's décor.
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.
