About this pattern

A tall, narrow red brick town house seen from the front. Three floors of white-framed windows with pale blue glass stand in three columns, with window boxes of red flowers under the windows of the two lower floors. A red front door with a white knob and a small fanlight stands at the bottom left, at the top of three gray stone steps. Above a white cornice the dark blue mansard roof has one dormer window and a brick chimney at the right. The brick is crossed by lines of lighter mortar. Dark brown outline. Full crosses only. It is 27 by 60 stitches and uses nine thread colors.

27 stitches wide by 60 high: 1,395 full cross stitches in 9 DMC colors (Winter White 3865, Ultra Dark Coffee Brown 938, Red Copper 919 and 6 more).
