About this pattern

The front of a Gothic cathedral seen square on: two pale gray stone towers, each carrying a steep slate blue spire with a cross on its tip, and a pointed gable between them. In the middle of the front is a round rose window, four blue panes round a red center with a dark upright and crossbar like a wheel. Below are three pointed doorways with red doors, the middle one the largest, and the towers have pointed slate blue windows. Dark brown outline, with a dark line where each storey ends. The left half mirrors the right exactly. Full crosses only.

39 stitches wide by 63 high: 1,816 full cross stitches in 5 DMC colors (Pearl Gray 415, Ultra Dark Coffee Brown 938, Dark Antique Blue 930 and 2 more).
