Stitch warm orange marigolds with this free printable cross-stitch pattern. Preview the DMC colors, adjust the palette if needed, and export the finished chart as a PDF.

Expect bright oranges, golden yellows, deeper warm shadows, and greens for foliage. The exact DMC floss codes and skein estimates are listed in the generated pattern key below.
Yes. In the editor you can reduce similar orange shades or remove background stitches before downloading the PDF. Keep at least a light, mid, and dark orange so the flower petals still have depth.
