A round Fourth of July night scene: three fireworks bursting in a navy sky above an American flag on a gold pole. The big burst at the top is red with white ends, and below it a white burst with red ends and a blue burst with white ends sit one at each side; every spark is a single stitch or a short dash flying straight out from a gold center. The flag stands on a strip of green grass: a small flag with nine red and white stripes and six white dots on a blue corner, not the full flag's thirteen and fifty. Nothing is written on it. The sky is stitched solid, about 2,400 navy stitches.
61 stitches wide by 61 high: 2,933 full cross stitches in 6 DMC colors (Very Dark Navy Blue 939, Hunter Green 3346, Red 321 and 3 more).

The fabric color changes the preview only: every cross matches your chart.
Count is the number of squares to the inch: 14-count fabric has 14, and a higher count makes the same design smaller.DMC is the thread maker whose color numbers most charts use.
