Autumn Leaf in Fiery Colours
There is something quietly wonderful about the moment a leaf turns, and this design captures it beautifully. Worked in warm reds and deep burnt orange, the Autumn Leaf in Fiery Colours cross stitch pattern brings the best of the season indoors, ready to be framed and enjoyed long after the last leaf has fallen.
This is a lovely project for anyone who appreciates the natural world, and its manageable size makes it a genuinely satisfying stitch from start to finish. It would make a thoughtful handmade gift for someone who loves autumn.

CXC and Sullivans skeins carry the DMC number, so use the DMC column for those brands.CXC and Sullivans skeins carry the DMC number, so the codes above cover them too.
These lengths include the thread lost to tails and travelling, so they are what to buy rather than what ends up on the fabric. A spare skein of your main colours is still worth having, because dye lots vary between batches and matching one part way through is the hard part.
HobbyTub also converts to Ariadna, CXC, Dimensions, Gamma, Luca-S, PNK Kirov, Sullivans and Unitas. Pick your brand when you start the project.
