About this pattern

A gold saxophone standing upright, seen from the side. A dark mouthpiece sits on the curved neck at the top left, the long body runs down to a U-bend, and the bell turns back up on the right. Five small white keys run down the body, with one larger round white key below them and another on the bell. The brass is shaded with a pale gold edge on the left and a darker gold on the right, inside a dark brown outline. Full crosses only. It is 33 by 51 stitches and uses five thread colors.

33 stitches wide by 51 high: 594 full cross stitches in 5 DMC colors (Medium Topaz 783, Ultra Dark Coffee Brown 938, Dark Topaz 782 and 2 more).
