Unicstitch 1056 Romance is a counted cross stitch kit on 28-count evenweave featuring a vintage bicycle with ornate scrollwork wheels and a basket overflowing with pink and white roses. The roses are stitched as dimensional rose stitch blooms that sit above the fabric surface, adding texture to the otherwise flat cross stitch and backstitch design. A delicate white lace-like border frames the scene. The palette is soft and muted — beige, dusty pink, white, and black — built from DMC floss in 11 colors. A refined shabby chic cross stitch project that combines cross stitch, backstitch, and rose stitch and lazy daisy techniques in one compact square design.

Project Notes
This is a counted cross stitch design on evenweave fabric — the fabric comes blank and you place each stitch over two threads by following the printed chart. The bicycle frame and wheels are done in backstitch, and the roses use rose stitch for a raised, three-dimensional effect, and the leaves are worked in lazy daisy stitch. With only 11 colors and no beads or metallics, the stitching itself is straightforward; the rose stitch flowers and lazy daisy leaves are the techniques that take a little practice. Once finished, frame the piece as a square or mount it in a hoop — the vintage style suits a bedroom, hallway, or craft room wall. A lovely handmade gift for vintage decor lovers, bicycle enthusiasts, or anyone who appreciates romantic, French-inspired needlework.
