Pattern description
This 109×109 stitch counted cross-stitch pattern captures romantic roses in delicate shades of pink, cream, and sage green against a warm cream background. The 18-color DMC palette creates a soft, watercolor-like effect through pixel-level color blending—perfect for needleworkers seeking a moderately challenging project with professional results. The composition's gentle tonal transitions and muted floral hues make it ideal for cottage-style or shabby-chic home décor, while the intermediate skill level rewards stitchers ready to work with nuanced color changes across standard Aida fabric.
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.
