Cross Stitch Orange and Blue Diamond Medallion

About this design

This cross stitch orange and blue diamond medallion embroidery design is a compact, symmetrical ornament worked entirely in x-shaped cross stitches, with a warm orange-and-gold diamond frame enclosing a column of three blue flower or leaf shapes at its center. The two-tone palette of amber orange against cobalt blue gives it a rich, folk-emblem look against an open cream background, recalling traditional Eastern European and Central Asian needlework. Its balanced, self-contained shape makes it a versatile motif for a single hooping, a corner accent or a repeated pattern. Try it on throw pillows and cushion covers, tote bags and pouches, table runners, placemats and napkins, tea towels, shirt pockets and cuffs, quilt blocks, dresser scarves, aprons, book and journal covers, and framed hoop art. It also stitches up as a handsome handmade gift for folk art and needlework lovers, crafters and boho decor fans, well suited to housewarmings, Mother's Day, birthdays, weddings and teacher or thank-you gifts. Compatible with popular embroidery machine formats including DST, PES, EXP, JEF, VP3, HUS, XXX, PEC, and more.
