Camping Themed Cross Stitch Patterns

I have only been camping in a tent a few times in my life and I have to say I don’t enjoy it. But I know some people do, and if camp life is the best life for you, you’ll want to check out these camping themed cross stitch patterns.

First I love this little tent pattern from Plaid Online. It’s an easy little pattern that uses five colors and measures 34 by 32 stitches. The back stitched trees, grass and clouds add an extra element of cuteness.

This tent surrounded by mountains, trees and a river could almost convince me to try camping again. The design is from So Easy Pattern and it measures 109 by 87 stitches. It uses 13 colors and is available on Etsy.

Camp Cross Stitch has a lot of camping themed cross stitch projects as you might guess from the name. I was trying to keep this set more to tents than campers (though I’m sure we’ll get to those before the summer is out) so we’re keeping it simple here with one that says “let’s go camping” with a tent and a tree. It looks like it uses about seven colors and the sales page says it measures about 5.5 by 3 inches on 14 count fabric (or 14 by 7.6 cm).

This camping cross stitch sampler does include a camper but also two tents so I’ll allow it. The design is from Cross Stitch Foxy, and while it’s cute all in one piece like this, you could also stitch individual motifs on different projects (patches for your hiking pack, maybe?). The full design is 15 by 8 inches/38 by 21 cm on 14 count fabric and uses 24 colors. The stitch area is 210 by 114 stitches.

And speaking of minis there are also these cure adventure and camping themed designs from The Stitch Mill that are cute in a bunch or stitched individually. The larger adventure set is shown in a 10-inch hoop, while the smaller camping themed sampler is in a 6 in hoop. Both are stitched on 18 count fabric.

Summer is the time for sweet treats, whether eating them or stitching them. This collection of patterns is full of designs that are good enough to eat. Almost.

This year of ice creams from Simone Balman Art is lots of fun, and you could also stitch up these treats individually if you’d rather. The full piece is 210 by 300 stitches, though it’s not full coverage. It uses 25 colors and comes out to 13.6 by 20.1 inches, or 34.5 by 51.2 cm, as shown on 14 count fabric.

These mini Popsicles from Mariana Gonclaves ART as super sweet and quick to stitch. These would also be a fun border to another summer project. The full design is 43 by 46 stitches, which is 3.1 by 3.3 inches, or 7.8 by 8.3 cm, on 14 count fabric.

Sam X Stitch has this fun sweet treat sampler, which again would be fun to stitch as individual pieces (maybe on napkins?). In all it calls for 18 colors and measures 153 by 153 stitches. That comes out to 10.93 inches or 27.75 cm on 14 count fabric.

Another great sampler is this one with ice cream and other sweet treats from Cute Patterns by Maria. At 119 by 132 stitches total, working the full pattern would be about 8.6 by 9.4 inches, or 22 by 24 cm on 14 count fabric, and it uses 33 colors. You can also stitch individual designs, which range in height from 35 to 45 stitches, and in width from 11 to 28.

This collection of four sundae patterns from Stichrovia would be fun to make for a kitchen or a teen’s room. Each pattern is around 40 by 50 stitches, so they should fit in a four or five inch hoop if worked on 14 count fabric.

Or stitch up one of the treats from Stitch Chart Studio‘s collection of seven ice cream cross stitch patterns. These range in size and in number of colors needed, but most would fit in a five or six in hoop (and one in a four inch hoop).
