Pattern description
Three jewel-toned tulips in rich burgundy and magenta anchor this 101 x 101 stitch composition, their petals rendered in subtle gradations that create dimensional depth. The bold green stems and leaves provide striking contrast against the cream background, making this an intermediate-level counted cross stitch project that balances color complexity with clear visual impact. With 14 DMC thread colors, stitchers will appreciate the varied palette that brings the flower forms to life without overwhelming the design's essential elegance. Perfect for spring décor or as a thoughtful gift, this tulip pattern translates beautifully onto 14-count Aida fabric. The warm, saturated color scheme and classic floral subject make it ideal for framed needlework, pillows, or wall hangings that celebrate garden beauty. The roughly square stitch count ensures even coverage and a finished piece that displays with balanced, gallery-worthy appeal.
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.
