This playful cross stitch border follows a charming little culinary scene filled with woodland characters, sweet treats and colorful kitchen details.

The design uses just 13 DMC colors, combining warm autumnal browns and oranges with touches of red, blue and green. Backstitch adds the expressive little details that bring each character to life while keeping the overall pattern clean and easy to read.

🧵Stitching Experience
Beginner Pattern
The design uses only 13 solid colors and has clearly defined areas of color, making the cross stitches straightforward to follow. The additional backstitch and French knots create the character details and expressions, so some familiarity with these techniques is helpful.
Because the pattern is long but relatively shallow, it is also a satisfying project for stitchers looking for something decorative that can be completed without committing to a large full-coverage design.
