About this pattern

A gold cross standing on a green hill in a round-topped window, in the manner of a small stained glass panel: every shape is a flat pane of one color, with a black line one stitch wide between panes and round the whole window. A ring with four red quarters sits behind the crossing, and the arms and the top of the cross run past it. The glass behind is light blue above a bar and darker blue below it, and a strip of green grass lies along the sill. The left side mirrors the right exactly, and every square inside the frame is stitched. Full crosses only.

29 stitches wide by 48 high: 1,304 full cross stitches in 6 DMC colors (Dark Electric Blue 995, Black 310, Kelly Green 702 and 3 more).
