Sand dunesFree cross-stitch pattern

Sand dunes is a cross-stitch pattern of 26 × 18 stitches from the Desert Trails album of Stitch Puzzle. It uses 5 DMC colours and 352 whole cross stitches, with no backstitch and no part stitches.

DMC 741 Tangerine Med covers the most cells, 127 stitches (36% of the design). The smallest amount is DMC 3830 Terra Cotta, with 13 stitches.

On 14-count Aida it measures 1.9 × 1.3 in (4.7 × 3.3 cm) and fits a 4-inch hoop. Cut the fabric at least 6 × 6 in (15 × 14 cm), so you have 2 in to spare on every side.
