$ 4.90 excl. VAT
Two sliced kiwis rest on a small plate with a spoon, in a compact still-life. The color work is steady and rhythmic, with moderate shading and very little scattered stitching.
Suits stitchers who enjoy simple food motifs with some focus on smooth color transitions.
Description
This design shows two kiwi halves arranged on a shallow plate with a spoon, in a clean, graphic still-life. The palette uses 13 DMC-based colors with around nine in active use at any time, so color changes are present but not constant. Confetti is almost nonexistent, so you work mostly in small, connected blocks rather than isolated stitches.
Edge detail around the fruit and spoon is moderate, which keeps the outlines clear without demanding constant counting. The background is partially filled, giving some open fabric for visual lightness and a faster overall pace. Most of the stitching feels methodical, with gentle shifts between greens, browns, and plate highlights.
This suits stitchers who like a balanced project that is neither too simple nor too dense. It may not appeal to those seeking either very quick, beginner-friendly pieces or highly detailed, complex artwork. The finished piece works well as a compact kitchen or dining accent.
Kiwi Halves on Porcelain Plate is designed to stitch well, not just to look good: the pattern’s structure supports a focused, steady rhythm and clear progress milestones. Difficulty-wise it sits in the range of Medium (Balanced), which mainly reflects how much thread management and precision you’ll want to bring to the table. It’s compact enough to feel finishable quickly while still giving a polished result.
The palette stays calm and controlled, which makes the stitching rhythm straightforward and relaxing. Confetti stays low, so you’ll enjoy larger, cleaner stitch runs and quick visible progress. High edge contrast means crisp outlines and frequent color transitions, which gives the finished piece a sharp, high-definition look.
The overall feel leans calm, focus, craft, which helps the design stay visually coherent while you work through it. Many stitchers also read Kiwi Halves on Porcelain Plate through themes like care, handmade, which can make the finished piece feel personal rather than purely decorative. A strong focal point plus consistent micro-structure keeps the stitching experience rewarding over time.

Stitched is the total number of stitches used (the overall workload).
Coverage is the percentage of the design area that contains stitched pixels (how “filled” it is).
Colors is the number of floss colors used (with an “effective” estimate that reflects how strongly colors actually appear).
Difficulty is a 1–10 score: 1 = very easy, 10 = extremely challenging.
Confetti_0 counts stitches that have no same-color neighbor directly around them; Confetti_1, Confetti_2, and Confetti_3 apply the same idea with a larger surrounding distance (+1, +2, +3 stitches).
Edge density indicates how “edgy” the design is (more edges = more frequent color changes).
Isolated is the share of stitches that appear as isolated single pixels (often the most interruption-prone stitches).
