Cross Stitch Patterns to Celebrate Pride

Pride is right around the corner, so it’s time to break out all the rainbow colors and get to stitching. These patterns are great to give as gifts (including wedding gifts) or to have in your house to show your pride or allyship.

We have to start with this Prince-inspired, Queerly Beloved cross stitch pattern from 1000TinyXs on Etsy. I love everything about it and there’s nothing more to say, other than it’s perfect to fit in a 5 by 7 frame if you stitch it on 14 count fabric.

This love rainbow pattern is super cute and would make a great wedding present. It’s a free pattern from Stitching the Night Away and is 60 by 60 stitches.

Speaking of rainbows, love and wedding presents, this Love Wins wedding cross stitch pattern is perfect for your next wedding celebration. It has room for the names of the brides or grooms and their wedding date and is decorated with lovebirds and flowers. The design is from Subversive Cross Stitch.

This set of 20 Pride minis from Scrappy Little Crafts is great for making patches, adding to cards or bookmarks or just about anything else.

Pride flags and cats was not a mashup I thought I needed, but these are adorable. You can get the pattern from Zahra Design Studio on Etsy. These would be great as mini projects too. (I also love there “Here you are” pattern, which would be perfect for an ally to stitch, or to display in a home or office where everyone is welcome.)

This pastel rainbow love script cross stitch pattern from Ugly Duckling House wouldn’t have to be for Pride, but it could be (either with brighter colors or not). The watercolor effect is done with 24 colors, or you could use variegated thread if you’d rather. Note the pattern used to be free but now is available through her membership site.

Since I covered Ted Lasso cross stitch patterns the other day, it feels like it’s time to share some cross stitch inspired by another show that just wrapped its final season, “The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel.” This show gave us retro style and a bunch of sassy female characters to remember. And again the patterns get a little salty thanks to one of Midge’s catchphrases.

Stitch a bunch of little characters from the show, or just your favorites from this sampler from Pixel Power Designs. The full piece measures 92 by 103 stitches and uses 13 colors. It comes out to 6.57 by 8.79 inches when worked on 14 count fabric.

Snarky Crafter Designs has a great Midge quote done in cross stitch. It is 116 by 156 stitches and uses two colors, and it uses cross stitches and back stitch. On 14 count fabric it comes out to 8.25 by 11 1/8 inches, but you can use whatever count fabric you like. And don’t act sorry about it!

Say “Thank you and goodnight!” with this Mrs. Maisel cross stitch pattern from Not Nana’s Cross Stitch on Etsy. This one looks like it uses five colors, and the design is 55 by 48 stitches.

OK, now for the salty ones. Midge and Susie are known for saying “Tits up” before a show, so of course that phrase has made it into Marvelous Mrs. Maisel cross stitch patterns. Stitch just those words in a retro font with the pattern from Stitch and Poke Company. It looks like two colors are used and the designer notes that if you use 18 count fabric the design will fit in a six-inch hoop.

Or you can stitch a Midge along with her famous phrase with a design from Fushia Hoops. This one is 72 by 105 stitches and is just over 5 by 7.5 inches worked on 14 count fabric. Let these designs be a reminder to greet every day as your feisty, awesome self.
