About this pattern

Stonehenge with a big pale yellow sun low behind the stones. Three trilithons stand on a rounded mound of green grass, each made of two gray uprights with a lintel across the top: the tallest in the middle, with the sun showing between its uprights and above its lintel, and a lower one on each side. One fallen stone lies in the grass in front, and seven short gold rays stand clear of the sun. Every stone is lighter on its left and top and darker on its right. The fabric is the sky. Dark brown outline. Full crosses only. It is 64 by 48 stitches and uses seven thread colors.

64 stitches wide by 48 high: 1,892 full cross stitches in 7 DMC colors (Ultra Dark Coffee Brown 938, Pale Yellow 744, Forest Green 989 and 4 more).
