Pattern description
This counted cross-stitch border features four repeating pink roses in full bloom, each rendered with delicate shading and soft gradations of color across 14 DMC threads. The composition alternates blooms with trailing green foliage, creating a classical horizontal repeat perfect for framing sampler edges, linens, or decorative panels. Advanced stitchers will appreciate the color blending and dimensional stitching required to achieve the roses' realistic depth and romantic mood.
