About this pattern

A broad leafy tree with six hearts hanging from its crown on strings, three on each side of the trunk: on each side one large red heart hangs high, with a smaller pink heart hanging lower on either side of it. The crown is one wide mass of mid green with a dark brown outline, paler green on its upper left and darker green along its underside. A dark brown trunk stands under the middle on a strip of pale green grass. The hearts are plain flat color with no outline, and nothing is written on them. The tree, the strings and the hearts mirror left to right. Full crosses only.

63 stitches wide by 58 high: 2,278 full cross stitches in 6 DMC colors (Hunter Green 3346, Ultra Dark Coffee Brown 938, Forest Green 989 and 3 more).
