About this pattern

A small mat stitched from edge to edge: a jack o lantern sitting in green grass against a dark brown night. The pumpkin is old gold, with a scalloped top, a short green stem, two triangle eyes, a triangle nose and a wide toothy grin, all cut through to the dark. A terracotta red border with blue triangles runs all the way round. No outline and no shading. The left side mirrors the right exactly. Full crosses only. It is 42 by 36 stitches and uses five thread colors.

42 stitches wide by 36 high: 1,512 full cross stitches in 5 DMC colors (Dark Old Gold 680, Ultra Dark Coffee Brown 938, Terra Cotta 3830 and 2 more).
