About this pattern

A single white daisy with a round mustard yellow center, on a salmon pink background that is stitched all over. Twelve white petals stand round the center: four long ones pointing up, down, left and right, and a pair of shorter ones in each corner. The flower stands on a straight dark green stem with a pair of pointed leaves, in a band of dark green ground along the bottom edge. The colors are flat, with no outline and no shading. The left side mirrors the right. Full crosses only. It is 40 by 52 stitches and uses four thread colors.

40 stitches wide by 52 high: 2,080 full cross stitches in 4 DMC colors (Medium Salmon 3712, Winter White 3865, Dark Blue Green 501 and 1 more).
