Autumn Towne Cross Stitch Pattern

My daughter and I both love fall. She loves it in part because of her birthday, but we both love changing leaves and falling temperatures.

If you’re a fan of all things fall (and big cross stitch projects) check out the Autumn Town cross stitch pattern from Autumn Lane Stitchery.

The Autumn Town pattern is not for the faint of heart, measuring 140 by 196 stitches, or 10 by 14 inches when crafted on 28 count fabric. Yet, it’s precisely the challenge that excites you both—the opportunity to embark on a cross-stitch adventure that will demand patience, dedication, and creativity. As you begin the project, you find solace in the rhythmic motion of the needle and thread, each stitch weaving a tale of appreciation for the season you both adore.

The pattern may boast a plethora of colors, a true testament to the diversity of fall’s palette, but the designers have thoughtfully included variegated threads, adding subtle gradients and depth to your masterpiece. These thoughtful touches not only enhance the final result but also make the journey a little easier, allowing you to focus on the joy of stitching.

With each completed stitch, you find yourselves transported to the idyllic streets of Autumn Town—the imagined destination where you both wander under the golden canopy of leaves, savoring the crispness in the air and cherishing the precious moments shared together. As the houses and trees take shape on your fabric canvas, the colors harmonize like the perfect symphony of autumn, creating a sight that warms your hearts.

You can get the pattern from Autumn Lane Stitchery on Etsy.

35+ Sunflower Cross Stitch Patterns

If you like seasonal samplers and cross stitch patterns with a primitive twist, you’ll enjoy the collection from Curious Carrie Designs.

You’ll find alphabet designs, biscornu, patriotic projects and more. The summer category is the largest on the storefront, with Americana and floral designs. There are also categories for the other seasons and more general designs.

One of my favorites is this pretty sunflower cross stitch pattern, which is shown styled as a biscornu but it wouldn’t have to be. The pattern features sunflowers and bees and a little beehive. It uses 12 colors of floss and each side of the pattern is 51 by 51 stitches, which comes out to 3.64 inches or 9.2 cm square.

I love the fabric she used for the sample, which she actually dyed purple herself, but it would also be pretty on a purchased light blue or other color if you don’t want to dye your own.

There’s also a whole set of themed biscornu with a four letter word on one side (crow, home, love and snow, to name a few) along with a seasonal pattern on the other side.

The shop has a rather small selection at around 90 patterns as of this writing, but it’s a nice collection of traditional looking designs heavy on samplers and biscornu designs, so if those are things you like you’ll want to be sure to check it out. Visit Curious Carrie Designs on Etsy to see all her pretty designs.
