Cross-Stitch

Charts, patterns and everything needlepoint

Check Out this Amazing Star Wars Cross Stitch Pattern

by

Making cross-stitch designs on the computer makes it possible to make designs that are a lot more detailed than in the days when charts were designed by hand.

An amazing example is this Star Wars cross stitch pattern featuring tons of characters, ships and other details.

It was designed by Creatively Stitching and uses about 100 colors in a design that comes out about 40 inches square on 16 count fabric.

This super-intricate design is $21.99, which is a lot for a pattern, but well worth it for a Star Wars superfan.

You can grab the pattern on etsy.

  1. I hope that before you decided to give free advertising to this Etsy seller you checked to see if they had obtained a license from Disney to sell this cross stitch chart.

    Given how closely Disney guards their property I wouldn’t be surprised to learn that this chart violates both copyright and trade mark laws. I don’t think this website is in the habit of promoting those crimes.

Designer Spotlight: Flossy Fox Shop

If you like your cross stitch designs full of color and with a bit of an 8-bit video game feel, you’ll want to check out Flossy Fox Shop. This Etsy seller based in Washington state specializes in fantasy creatures, cozy witch scenes, magic and myths, as well as other designs that are sure to delight. 

I know that shop category “cozy witch scenes” caught my attention, so let’s take a look. It’s mostly sampler style designs with lots of little elements, and some are specifically parts of the house like a cozy with kitchen or library. The one shown here is called Bats and Bells, Tea and Spells, and it includes a table in front of a window with plenty of fun creatures like a fox, crow, dragon and cat. 

On the wall there are swords and an axe, and maybe also some drying herbs and a teapot. The design is 82 by 77 stitches and uses 22 colors. On 14 count fabric it comes out to 5.9 by 5.5 inches, or almost 15 by 14 cm. 

The largest category is myths and magic, which includes cryptids, dragons, mermaids, kitsune and other fanciful creatures. Another large group is animals and nature, which is heavy on cats and corgis, as well as foxes.

There’s also a handful of cute bookmarks, some Christmas designs, and a few cute video game inspired designs. They also have a few stitchalongs if that’s something you enjoy. 

These projects are colorful, cute and whimsical, and look like they would be a lot of fun to stitch if you like this style. 

The shop also includes some cute needle minders and washi tape in a similar style if you want to coordinate your stitching. 

Check out all the cuteness at Flossy Fox Shop, and if you stitch up one of their patterns I’d love to hear about it!
