About this pattern

A small sampler of a log cabin inside a red zigzag border. The cabin is seen at its gable end: brown logs with dark seams, pale cut log ends at both corners, a red door, a lit window of four yellow panes and a gray roof edge. A gray stone chimney stands against its right side, with three gray puffs of smoke drifting away to the left over the roof, and a tall dark green pine tree in three tiers on a brown trunk stands to its left. The cabin, chimney and tree are outlined in dark brown. No wording. Full crosses only. It is 63 by 57 stitches and uses nine thread colors.

63 stitches wide by 57 high: 1,548 full cross stitches in 9 DMC colors (Red 321, Ultra Dark Coffee Brown 938, Very Dark Hazelnut Brown 869 and 6 more).
