Cosmos Plant Life Cycle Cross Stitch Design

Download Categories: ,

The chart shows a cosmos plant life cycle arranged around a pale circular guide. The elements form a ring that moves from seed, to sprout, to seedling, to flowering plant, then back to seed.Left of center: a small bee with yellow and dark striping appears in flight. A thin, pale circle that acts as a layout guide for the life cycle sequence.

Seeds and seed stages (left side)

Near the left edge, two curved, brown seed shapes sit as a pair, angled like narrow crescents.
Below-left, a spiky, brown seed head appears as a starburst form on a thin stem.
These seed elements use brown tones with small highlight shifts.

Germination and early growth (upper left to top)

Upper left: a small sprout with two green leaves emerges from a dark seed coat shape.
Top center: a young seedling rises from a small dark soil mound, with a thin stem and small green leaves.
Upper left of the seedling: another small green sprout appears, with a short stem and paired leaves.

Flowering stages (right side and lower center)

Right side: a tall cosmos plant with a green stem and branching side stems.
The plant carries multiple blooms in lavender to purple shades, with yellow centers.
One bloom faces forward with layered petals; another sits slightly behind; a smaller bloom appears near the upper right cluster.
Lower center: a single cosmos flower on a green stem, with a lavender bloom and yellow center.
A small round bud appears on a side stem near the lower flower.

Roots (lower right)

At the base of the tall plant, a root mass spreads downward in pale tan strands, with branching lines that suggest fine roots.

Pollinators (upper right and center-left)

Upper right: a blue butterfly with two wings visible, placed near the top flower cluster.

This chart is 75 colors and measures 304x319. The background is removed, so it's not as much stitching as one would imagine.

What's Included

These designs are charted for 18-count fabric using two strands of thread, but can be adapted to any fabric count. Adjustments will affect the finished size and thread requirements. Each chart includes a 30% thread excess estimate. A fabric calculator is provided in the footer of each page; inputting the stitch count will determine the necessary fabric size.

All charts include a black and white chart, color chart, symbol guide, and shopping list. Exceptions apply to designs with fewer than 15 colors, those using only one skein per color, or those explicitly stated as including only one chart type in the listing description.
