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

Cute spooky and fantasy cross stitch patterns is how the designer behind Haunted Frames describes their shop, and I have to agree with them. These designs are cute and Gothic and a little bit spooky all at once. There’s a heavy focus on book themes, which you know I am a fan of, so let’s get into it.

Stopping first in the books section, there are lots of designs that are literally on book shapes, but if you know my love of both books and cats, you’ll know I had to share the Midnight Book Cart cross stitch pattern. As the name suggests it’s a design with a witchy book cart, complete with a spiderweb, bats flying out of a book and what it describes as a ghost cat (though I would have to make a black cat instead of a white one since I have a black cat, and that fits with the vibe).

The design is 65 by 97 stitches and is worked in 17 colors. It’s shown on 16 count fabric, which makes it 4.1 by 6.1 inches, or 10.3 by 15.4 cm.

I also love the winter themed little free library design, which would be perfect to stitch up for the little librarian in your life (or to drop at a neighborhood book space).

Projects with a book theme make up the majority of the patterns that are categorized in this shop, but you’ll want to scroll through all their patterns to see what else is available, since it doesn’t look like everything is in a category. You’ll find castles and dragons, more cats of course, some more obviously Halloween and Christmas themed projects and those that would suit for spooky season or any other time of year.

If cute and dark is your aesthetic, you’ll want to check out all the patterns at www.etsy.com/shop/HauntedFrames, which you can find on Etsy.
