About this pattern

A smiling gold five-point star standing on a white cloud. The star has two dark eyes with a white glint in each, two pink cheeks and a small curved smile. Its two lower points rest on the cloud, which is white with round puffs on top, round ends, a level base and a band of pale blue shadow along the bottom. A dark brown outline runs round the star and the cloud, and the left half mirrors the right exactly. Full crosses only. It is 55 by 44 stitches and uses five thread colors.

55 stitches wide by 44 high: 1,070 full cross stitches in 5 DMC colors (Winter White 3865, Medium Topaz 783, Ultra Dark Coffee Brown 938 and 2 more).
