About this pattern

A low pink cottage seen from the front, in the manner of a Bermuda cottage. Its white roof climbs in five steps to a small white chimney block at the top, with a line of gray shade along the foot of each step. The pink wall has two windows, each with pale blue glass crossed by white bars and a dark green slatted shutter on either side, and a green door with two lighter panels in the middle. A darker pink line of shade runs under the eaves. White steps widen from the door down across a green lawn. The whole design mirrors left to right. Dark brown outline. Full crosses only.

61 stitches wide by 45 high: 1,835 full cross stitches in 8 DMC colors (Winter White 3865, Ultra Dark Coffee Brown 938, Light Salmon 761 and 5 more).
