Beetlejuice Cross Stitch Patterns

With the release of the new Beetlejuice movie and Halloween sneaking up on us, it seems like a good time to share some Beetlejuice cross stitch patterns.

At the most basic there’s the Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice pattern from Brianna Lentz. This free pattern is worked in a single color and is a perfect fit for a 5×7 picture frame.

We also know we should never trust the living, as this design from Avocado Stitchery reminds us. This one also uses only one color but has a lot of back stitching to make the design around the lettering. It’s made to fit in an 8-inch hoop.

One of the most iconic items in the original Beetlejuice movie is the Handbook for the Recently Deceased, and you can stitch the cover with this pattern form Aliton Embroidery on Etsy. It uses six colors and measures 84 by 112 stitches. That’s 6 by 8 inches or 15.24 by 20.32 cm on 14 count fabric. The designer suggests using black or chocolate brown fabric for this one to mimic the book in the movie.

Stitch up cute versions of the Beetlejuice characters with this design from Geeky Stitches. I can’t wait for some of these from the new movie! This set includes Beetlejuice, Lydia, Barbara and Adam and is 80 by 70 stitches. It comes out to 4 by 3.21 inches, or 10 by 8.15 cm, on 14 count fabric and uses 17 colors.

Or you can stitch a creepy version of Beetlejuice himself with Raven Stitch Craft’s design. This woodcut style design is a showstopper that uses six colors and has a stitch are of 233 by 233 stitches. On 14 count fabric that comes out to 16.6 inches or 42.3 centimeters.

For another big and dramatic project from the movie, check out zegihoops‘ design for Dante’s Inferno Room. This one is 238 by 190 stitches, or 17 by 13.6 inches (43.2 by 34.5 cm) on 14 count fabric (both of these patterns offer other fabric options to make it larger or smaller). While the size of it might make it more of a challenge, it also looks like it would be a lot of fun to stitch for a Beetlejuice lover.

Funny Avocado Cross Stitch Patterns

I came across the Etsy shop Bad Stitched when I was looking for bookmark cross stitch patterns and found their adorable pride bat bookmark, which I didn’t share then because I was going for more of a back to school vibe, but it’s definitely worth checking out if you love rainbows and bats.

This Etsy shop is big on whimsy and color, but not on organization, as there are not categories. Still, as of this writing there were only a little more than 60 patterns, so it’s small enough to scroll through.

In keeping with the theme of the bat bookmark, there are a lot of designs with animals and insects in different colors. Another one that caught my in this neon cicada with a crescent moon and stars. This one is 85 by 70 stitches and uses 16 colors. On 14 count fabric it comes out to 6 by 5 inches, or 15.4 by 12.7 cm.

You’ll also find patterns with animals such as mice, a snail, a jellyfish, a wolf, a corgi in a birthday hat, a fat seal and other bat designs. There are several mushroom designs, a pirate frog, and a scuba diving ghost (among other ghostly designs). You’ll find cats and mythical characters, a mouse thinking about eating strawberries and more.

There’s also an ebook full of mushroom designs, and another of creepy creatures for Halloween and beyond. There’s also a Pantheon bundle, full of gods, goddesses, characters from mythology, three amphora designs and a Greek inspired font.

If these sorts of designs sound like something you’d like to stitch, check out Bad Stitched on Etsy.
