Pattern description
Rich magenta and deep burgundy tulips create a sophisticated counted cross stitch design that radiates elegance. The composition features three blooming flowers at varying heights against a gradient background transitioning from soft lavender to pale cream, establishing depth and visual interest across the 130 x 130 stitch canvas.
This intermediate-level needlework project demands precision and patience, working with 30 distinct DMC thread colors to achieve the subtle shading that brings these tulips to life. The gradient background requires careful color blending, making it an excellent choice for stitchers seeking to develop their technique beyond basic patterns.
Perfect for spring décor or as a thoughtful gift for gardening enthusiasts, the jewel-toned palette complements both traditional and contemporary interiors. The finished piece works beautifully framed in a 4x4 or 5x5 display, or incorporated into decorative pillow covers. Stitch this on 14-count Aida fabric for a finished size of approximately 9.5 by 9.5 inches, downloading the free printable PDF chart to begin your elegant floral project today.
