About this pattern

The double rose of the old English badge, seen face on: a red rose of five petals with a smaller white rose of five petals lying on it, a square gold middle, and the green tip of a sepal showing in each of the five gaps between the red petals. One red petal points straight up. It has no stem or leaves. The left half mirrors the right exactly. Dark brown outline. Full crosses only. It is 29 by 31 stitches and uses five thread colors.

29 stitches wide by 31 high: 659 full cross stitches in 5 DMC colors (Red 321, Ultra Dark Coffee Brown 938, Winter White 3865 and 2 more).
