Instant download after payment
Two little birds share a quiet moment under a cherry tree, and right in the middle the word 'summer' is stitched out loud. This cross stitch pattern (PDF) gathers a whole warm season into one balanced composition: three painted birdhouses on posts, cherries hanging in pairs, clean folk borders holding it all in.
The palette leans on a classic folk trio — red, green and pink — set on pale Aida so every shade can breathe. This is counted cross stitch in the spirit of old sampler work: unhurried, and easy to come back to season after season.
