About this pattern

A blueberry muffin seen from the side. The golden brown top is a dome wider than its case, a shade darker along the right, with four round blueberries baked into it, each a dusty blue with a paler point of light. The paper case underneath is white with four thin pale blue stripes and narrows toward a flat base. There is no icing and nothing on top. Dark brown outline. The case is stitched in white, so it shows best on a natural or colored fabric. A mini piece for a kitchen towel, a recipe card or a gift tag. Full crosses only. It is 27 by 28 stitches and uses six thread colors.

27 stitches wide by 28 high: 582 full cross stitches in 6 DMC colors (Winter White 3865, Medium Topaz 783, Ultra Dark Coffee Brown 938 and 3 more).
