Description
A grid of stitched cells fills the sampler, each one holding a different stylized bloom in mismatched colors and styles. Some cells hold a single oversized flower, a pink scalloped rose or a teal sunburst; others gather smaller blossoms with leafy stems, clusters of daisies, or rows of little blue stars. A more complex arrangement of red, raisin, and brown flowers sits at the center. The design extends Lori Holt's Flea Market fabric collection into cross stitch.
What the Pattern Includes
This listing is for the printed paper pattern only. Fabric, floss, hoop, needle, and notions are not included.

Perfect For
- Cross stitchers who like variety in one project, with each grid cell holding a different flower design
- Fans of Lori Holt's Flea Market fabric collection looking for the same aesthetic in stitched form
- Confident beginners ready for a substantial multi-design sampler
- A handmade gift for someone who loves vintage florals or cottage style
- A wall piece for a living room, sewing room, or anywhere folk-art florals would feel at home
Why You'll Love This Pattern
Each grid cell is essentially its own small project, so the work doesn't repeat itself. One cell brings a sunflower to life; the next, a cluster of small daisies; the next, a single oversized rose. The satisfaction of completing a design arrives every few hours rather than every few days.
The seventeen DMC colors carry Lori Holt's Happy Colors naming (CAYENNE, FROSTING, RAISIN, SONGBIRD, SEAGLASS), the same vintage, gathered palette she brings to her Flea Market fabric collection. No two outer cells share the same dominant color, so the variety holds up at a glance.
