Pattern description
Stitching a Tree pattern offers a rewarding experience in counted cross stitch, capturing the natural elegance of botanical imagery through needle and thread. The 103 × 103 stitch count creates a perfectly balanced square design that works beautifully on standard Aida fabric.

This intermediate-level project strikes an ideal balance between challenge and accessibility, making it suitable for stitchers with some embroidery experience who want to expand their skills. The free printable PDF chart includes clear DMC color keys, allowing you to organize your threads and follow the pattern with confidence. Whether you're framing your finished piece as wall art or incorporating it into a larger needlework project, this counted cross stitch pattern delivers satisfying results on Aida fabric with minimal color coordination concerns.
Stitch planning checklist
- Measure your fabric against the stitch count to confirm finished size.
- Sort floss by symbol before you start; pre-thread a few needles for speed.
- Work in small blocks to keep counting accurate and spot mistakes early.
- Backstitch at the end of each session so outlines stay crisp.
