Pattern description

This counted cross-stitch design captures a serene African savanna scene dominated by a solitary acacia tree silhouetted against distant mountains. The composition balances the windswept tree in the foreground with rolling grassland and a hazy blue mountain range, creating natural depth and perspective that draws the eye across the stitched landscape.

Stitchers will appreciate the rich palette of 40 DMC thread colors that shift from warm golden-greens in the grass to cool blue-grays in the distant peaks and sky. At 239 x 239 stitches, this advanced-level pattern rewards experienced needleworkers with a satisfying challenge and a finished piece that evokes the peaceful vastness of African wilderness. The warm, naturalistic color mood makes it ideal for home décor in spaces celebrating travel, nature, or cultural heritage—whether displayed in a living room or study where its contemplative landscape becomes a window to distant lands.

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.
