Chart: The Christmas Rose, Cross Stitch Design

Also known as hellebore, the Christmas rose is one of the few flowers that brightens up gardens and interiors in the heart of winter. Its delicate corollas in soft hues, ranging from white to powdery pink and tender green, bring a note of elegance and refinement during the holiday season. A symbol of hope and renewal, it has become a staple of winter decorations.

This embroidered interpretation highlights all the natural grace of this exceptional flower. The delicate shades of the petals and foliage create a luminous and gentle composition, ideal for bringing a floral touch to the home when the garden is dormant. Easy and quick to make, this embroidery also makes an excellent handmade gift idea for the holidays.

The design was embroidered on a DMC 11-thread/cm off-white linen fabric (color 3865), worked over 2 warp threads and 2 weft threads. This soft and luminous fabric particularly enhances the subtle shades of the flower. This creation can also be made on a 5.5 stitches/cm Aida fabric for similar dimensions.

The charts are printed with symbols and colors (DMC ref.) on 6 pages.

Design size: 104 × 103 stitches — approximately 18.9 × 18.7 cm on 11-thread/cm linen or 5.5 stitches/cm Aida. Ideal for a winter floral picture to frame.
