About this pattern

A small fishing village on its harbor. Four houses stand side by side on a gray stone quay: a tall yellow one and a tall pink one with pointed red roofs, each followed by a low white one with a red roof and a dark chimney. Every house has blue-gray windows and a brown door. Below the quay the water is teal with five short white ripples; a sailboat with a red hull and two white sails lies on the left and a small yellow fishing boat with a white wheelhouse on the right. Dark brown outline. Full crosses only. It is 57 by 39 stitches and uses nine thread colors.

57 stitches wide by 39 high: 1,817 full cross stitches in 9 DMC colors (Dark Turquoise 3810, Ultra Dark Coffee Brown 938, Winter White 3865 and 6 more).
