About this pattern

A round storybook tree in full leaf whose lobed crown is colored in six upright bands, red on the left, then orange, yellow, green and blue, to violet on the right. A solid dark brown trunk rises through the middle with three pairs of branches forking upward inside the leaves, and stands on a low green mound. A dark brown outline runs round the crown and the mound. The shape mirrors left to right; only the colors run across. Full crosses only. It is 50 by 62 stitches and uses seven thread colors.

50 stitches wide by 62 high: 1,836 full cross stitches in 7 DMC colors (Ultra Dark Coffee Brown 938, Chartreuse 703, Dark Autumn Gold 3853 and 4 more).
