Perfect for beginners or anyone seeking a quick stitching project, this spring bookmark uses just seven DMC thread colors and requires only basic cross-stitch skills. The compact 29x29 stitch count makes it ideal for completing in a weekend, and it works beautifully on 14-count Aida fabric.

The printable PDF chart includes all color codes and counts, making it accessible even for needlework newcomers.
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.
