Daisy Cross Stitch Patterns

There are so many great flowers in spring, but daisies are one of my favorites. They’re a favorite of cross stitch designers, too, as I learned when I went looking for daisy cross stitch patterns and found a ton. Here are just a few that caught my eye. It turns out they’re the birth flower of May, so you can stitch them up for a May baby’s birthday or any other occasion.

If you want to keep it super simple or you’re a beginner, this daisy cross stitch pattern from Atelier Tiphanie is a great one. It uses six colors and is 40 by 40 stitches, so it should be a pretty fast project, too.

Luzatoyle has another easy daisy pattern that looks like they’ve been freshly plucked. This charming little design is 2.5 by 3 inches (6.35 by 7.62 cm) or 35 by 43 stitches and uses five colors.

Looking for a cross stitch kit to make a daisy? This one from Helens Crossing includes black fabric, a 4-inch hoop, thread and a needle. It’s rated for beginners so this might be a good one to gift someone new to cross stitch who loves flowers.

Or how about a daisy bookmark? This one form Natalka Studio is 31 by 99 stitches and uses 7 colors. That measures 2.2 by 7.1 inches or 5.6 by 18 cm on 14 count fabric and it’s an allover pattern, so you might need to add a little extra fabric for edging if you want.

This bee and daisy pattern from Mariana Goncalves ART is super sweet and pretty easy, too. It measures 70 by 70 stitches, or 5 by 5 inches (that’s 12.7 cm) on 14 count fabric, which is super cute in a 6-inch hoop.

This wreath of daisies from The Fresh Cross Stitch is also pretty and not too difficult, though it is a larger pattern at 150 by 150 stitches. It uses 8 colors and on 14 count fabric comes out to 10.7 inches or 27 cm square.

Playing on the idea that daisies are April’s flower is this sweet pattern from Stitch Haus Studio Shop (leave the word April off if you prefer). The design comes out to 10.7 by 14.3 inches (27.2 by 36 cm) on 14 count fabric and uses 14 colors.

I love this watercolor daisy pattern from XStitchPatternX because it looks like the flowers are still growing in a field of wildflowers. This pattern uses 28 colors and measures 108 by 200 stitches. On 14 count fabric that would come out to 7.87 by 14.7 inches, or 20.3 by 36.3 cm.

Inkspire Studio Shops offers cross stitch patterns as well as tons of different stitch minders, scissor charms and thread organization tools.

We’ll get to all that, but since we’re mostly here for the patterns, let’s start there.

All of the patterns are in one category (called Inkspire Originals if you’re following along). There are a lot of book-themed projects and more of the designs are bookmarks than anything else. You’ll find trope bookmarks, a Reading Rainbow themed design, flowers and a super cute watercolor set bookmark, to name a few.

And while the book themed projects are by far the most numerous, I wanted to share this super cute pile of vintage Pyrex style bowls. I love the colors on this one and it should be easy to stitch because so much of it is blocks (or bowls) of a single color. This one is only available as a printed pattern, but most of them are digital.

It calls for six colors and comes out 5.6 by 6.9 inches, or 14.2 by 17.5 cm when stitched on 14 count fabric.

In addition to the bookmarks and book themed projects you’ll find a few kitchen projects and some Halloween and Christmas designs as well.

But what this shop is really about is needle minders, and there are tons of them, with all kinds of themes ranging from introverted and snarky to animal themes, food and beverages, retro designs and religious and inspiring needle minders.

If you don’t know about needle minders, these are acrylic with magnets. You stick a magnet to the back of your work, add the needle minder to the front of the work, and then it holds your sewing needle when you’re not stitching. No need for piercing your fabric or losing your needle between stitching sessions.

She also makes charms you can attach to your scissors (or use as a stitch marker if you’re a knitter or crocheter), inventory and project trackers and bags large and small to hold works in progress and other supplies. She’s also got a great collection of vintage cross stitch patterns and kits, so check out all the fun goodies at Inkspired Studio Shops.
