How much fabric do I need?
To calculate the amount of fabric you will need for your project, divide the number of stitches by the stitch count of the fabric you wish to use. The higher the count of your fabric, the smaller your piece will be. Some examples appear below. Remember to leave several additional inches as a border on each side, to facilitate framing your project when it is finished.

Do purple roses really exist?
Believe it or not, yes, they do! They are exceedingly rare, but have been created with careful crossbreeding of existing rose varieties. You can also get a "purple rose" by placing a white rose cutting into a vase filled with water and purple food coloring. As the water is taken up by the rose, it will turn a purplish shade.

A review by Linda
for Dark Rose Cross Stitch Pattern
I just finished this and it is beautiful project from a really wonderful pattern. I would warn it is for the more experienced cross stitcher as most patterns from this publisher are but well worth the effort!
