Stitch Puzzle

QuinceFree cross-stitch pattern

Quince is a cross-stitch pattern of 24 × 25 stitches from the Little Orchard album of Stitch Puzzle. It uses 5 DMC colours and 401 whole cross stitches, with no backstitch and no part stitches.

DMC 444 Lemon Dark covers the most cells, 160 stitches (40% of the design). The smallest amount is DMC 718 Plum, with 6 stitches.

On 14-count Aida it measures 1.7 × 1.8 in (4.4 × 4.5 cm) and fits a 4-inch hoop. Cut the fabric at least 6 × 6 in (15 × 15 cm), so you have 2 in to spare on every side.
