About this pattern

A round gold medal with a white five-point star in the middle, hanging from a short dark blue ribbon with a red stripe down its center, under a gold bar. A ring of darker gold runs inside the medal's rim, and the ribbon folds in to a narrow red tab where the medal hangs. Dark brown outline. The left half mirrors the right exactly. No wording. Full crosses only. It is 25 by 44 stitches and uses seven thread colors.

25 stitches wide by 44 high: 762 full cross stitches in 7 DMC colors (Medium Topaz 783, Ultra Dark Coffee Brown 938, Medium Navy Blue 311 and 4 more).
