BonsaiFree cross-stitch pattern

Bonsai is a cross-stitch pattern of 27 × 26 stitches from the Tea Garden album of Stitch Puzzle. It uses 5 DMC colours and 434 whole cross stitches, with no backstitch and no part stitches.

DMC 898 Coffee Brown Vy Dk covers the most cells, 128 stitches (29% of the design). The smallest amount is DMC 434 Brown Light, with 38 stitches.

On 14-count Aida it measures 1.9 × 1.9 in (4.9 × 4.7 cm) and fits a 4-inch hoop. Cut the fabric at least 6 × 6 in (16 × 15 cm), so you have 2 in to spare on every side.
