About this pattern

A sawn tree stump seen a little from above, so the pale cut top shows two oval growth rings round a short center line. The brown bark sides carry a few upright dark furrows and a root spreads at the left foot. A red toadstool with white spots and a white stalk stands in front of the stump at the right, on a low strip of green grass. A dark brown outline one stitch wide runs round every part. Full crosses only. It is 51 by 29 stitches and uses six thread colors.

51 stitches wide by 29 high: 998 full cross stitches in 6 DMC colors (Very Dark Hazelnut Brown 869, Ultra Dark Coffee Brown 938, Light Straw 3822 and 3 more).
