About this pattern

The Luther rose as the round pane of a pointed church window. The seal is whole: a black cross in a red heart at the center of a white rose of five petals with green sepals, on a sky blue field in a gold ring. Around it the window has pale yellow glass above and below and a narrow pale blue pane at each side, parted by dark lead lines, in a gray stone frame that comes to a point at the top and stands on a wider sill. Everything mirrors left to right. No lettering. Dark brown outline. Full crosses only. It is 61 by 64 stitches and uses ten thread colors.

61 stitches wide by 64 high: 3,042 full cross stitches in 10 DMC colors (Light Straw 3822, Ultra Dark Coffee Brown 938, Dark Baby Blue 322 and 7 more).
