Pattern description
A radiant bloom unfolds across this 140 x 140 stitch composition, showcasing warm golden yellows that transition into rich crimson tones at the flower's heart. The layered petals create dimensional movement, with carefully placed color shifts that bring the rose to life. A pair of green leaves anchors the base, their natural hues grounding the warm florals above.
This intermediate-level counted cross stitch pattern uses 27 DMC thread colors to capture the rose's luminous quality. Stitchers will appreciate how the color palette balances vibrant jewel tones with softer peachy-gold accents, creating visual depth without overwhelming complexity. The stitch count makes it substantial enough for a rewarding project without demanding expert-level precision.
Perfect for framing above a mantel or gifting to gardening enthusiasts and flower lovers, this design brings classic elegance to any room. The warm color mood complements rustic, traditional, and cottage-core décor styles. Worked on 14-count Aida fabric, the finished piece measures approximately 10 x 10 inches, making it ideal for small wall displays or as a thoughtful handmade present for spring or summer occasions.
Stitch planning checklist
