About this pattern

Two strawberries side by side on one level, the same size. The left one is whole: red, with sixteen pale yellow seeds in staggered rows and a darker red shade down its right side. The right one is cut in half lengthwise and turned to face you: a rim of red, paler pink flesh inside it and a rounded white core in the middle. Each has broad shoulders and one blunt point at the bottom, and each wears the same pointed green cap with a short stalk. The two do not touch. Dark brown outline. Full crosses only. It is 49 by 29 stitches and uses seven thread colors.

49 stitches wide by 29 high: 874 full cross stitches in 7 DMC colors (Red 321, Ultra Dark Coffee Brown 938, Hunter Green 3346 and 4 more).
