About this pattern

A blue garden wheelbarrow seen from the side, heaped with flowers. The blue tray has a darker blue lip and stands on one wheel at the front, on the left, and a wooden leg at the back, with a wooden rail under the tray and a wooden handle rising to the right to a dark blue grip. In the tray a green mound of leaves carries five round blooms: a large pink one at the top, a red one on the left, a gold one with a red center on the right, and a small pink one and a small red one in front. Dark brown outline. Full crosses only. It is 52 by 42 stitches and uses eight thread colors.

52 stitches wide by 42 high: 1,109 full cross stitches in 8 DMC colors (Ultra Dark Coffee Brown 938, Medium Antique Blue 931, Dark Antique Blue 930 and 5 more).
