About this pattern

A small square mat stitched from edge to edge: a two-story red house seen from the front on a strip of green lawn against a dark brown ground. It has a blue roof with a red chimney at each end, three windows upstairs, a blue door between two windows downstairs, and four cream panes in every window. A border of gold and blue blocks runs all the way round. No outline and no shading. The left side mirrors the right exactly. Full crosses only. It is 39 by 39 stitches and uses six thread colors.

39 stitches wide by 39 high: 1,521 full cross stitches in 6 DMC colors (Ultra Dark Coffee Brown 938, Medium Antique Blue 931, Terra Cotta 3830 and 3 more).
