Cute Father’s Day Cross Stitch Patterns

As a crafter I tend to pay more attention to Mother’s Day than I do to Father’s Day, but fathers deserve love and stitched tokens of appreciation, too, so let’s take a look at some cute Father’s Day cross stitch patterns.

These nautical themed Father’s Day cross stitch patterns from Stitchrovia are nice, and pretty easy to stitch, too. Each one is 55 by 55 stitches, which comes out close to 4 inches/10 cm on 14 count fabric. Put yours in a hoop as shown or mount it on a card.

This colorful Happy Father’s Day design from Stitchissimo is really cute, and another one that could be framed or used as a card. At 60 by 60 stitches, it comes out to 5 inches or 12.7 cm square on 12 count fabric, or 4.3 inches/10.9 cm on 14 count. It uses five colors.

Remind your dad he’s number one with this easy cross stitch pattern from Bella Rose Craft. Using two colors, it easily fits in a four inch hoop when worked on 14 count fabric.

And if the dad in your life sports glasses, a beard and flannels, you can stitch up this Best Dad Ever project from Cross Stitch Lukovka. This one uses 14 colors and comes in at 62 by 78 stitches. On 14 count fabric that’s 4.33 by 5.51 inches, or 11.25 by 14.15 cm.

Of course we have to have some funny projects, like “Nacho average dad,” featuring father and child chips, from Stomp Creations. This one is meant to fit on a greeting card and measures 2.93 by 2.36 inches, or 7.4 by 6 cm, on 14 count fabric. That’s 41 by 33 stitches, and it looks like four colors.

Or you can remind dad that you’re his favorite with this sweet but salty design from Snarky Stitch Bitch. It uses nine colors and comes out about 9.4 inches/23.8 cm on 14 count fabric, with a stitch count of 131 by 131 stitches.

And if that’s not snarky enough for you, try this special award for dad from HH Stitchery and Supply. At 126 by 98 stitches, it comes out to 9 by 7 inches (22.9 by 17.8 cm) on 14 count fabric, uses eight colors and is suitable for framing and displaying in any place of honor in your home. Including the bathroom.

These mini Halloween cross stitch patterns are a great way to add to your holiday decor in a hurry.

The 28 tiny Halloween cross stitch patterns set from Aliton Embroidery includes all sorts of fun designs, from mushrooms and cats to a plague doctor, witch hat, bat and ghost. The designs vary a bit in size but the biggest ones are 20 by 22 stitches, which makes them 1.4 by 1.6 inches, or 3.63 by 3.99 cm, when worked on 14 count fabric. Most ot he projects use three or four colors, but there are 22 colors used across the whole set.

This spook sampler from ONESEO is shown as one big piece but you could easily stitch the ones you like individually. Each little patchwork inspired design is the same size, and the full piece is 200 by 200 stitches, which makes each square a little smaller than 50 by 50.

This one is from And Wabi Sabi and includes a bubbling cauldron, crystal ball and coffin. The full design is 72 by 84 stitches, but each individual design would fit in a 3 inch hoop when stitched on 14 count fabric. The full design uses 15 colors.
