Designer Spotlight: Mama Witch Cross Stitch

November 25, 2024 by Sarah White

You might expect an Etsy shop with the name Mama Witch Cross Stitch to have a lot of Halloween patterns, and they do, but there’s a lot more in store with this shop in Israel that offers as it says one of a kind magic patterns for witch souls.

If you do happen to be looking for Halloween patterns, you’ll find nearly 90 as of this writing, though there’s a lot in that section that could be used throughout the fall and beyond.

In fact, one of my favorites, which is featured here, is called See You in Spring and features frog and toad and a lot of great forest stuff. It doesn’t look Halloween at all to me but that’s where I found it.

This one measures 177 by 172 stitches, which comes out to about 12.6 by 12.3 inches, or 32 by 31 cm, when stitched on 14 count fabric. The listing doesn’t say how many colors are used but it looks like a lot.

In addition to Halloween patterns, you’ll also find an amazing bestiary of patterns including whales and other sea creatures, mythical creatures like unicorns and jackalopes, foxes, hedgehogs and more. The patterns are colorful with a fantastical edge and goblincore vibes. There’s also a cute collection of Christmas patterns, many including animals hunkering down somewhere cozy for the winter or shown inside a holiday wreath.

There’s also a sweet collection called My Comfort Zone, which features animals in clothes surrounded by flowers, leaves, mushrooms and other stuff. It’s very similar in feel to the frog and toad piece shown here, but smaller and with single animals.

Check out all the goodies at the Mama Witch Cross Stitch Etsy shop. I’d love to hear if you buy something, and let me know if you’ve got a favorite cross stitch designer who needs to be in the spotlight!

Hanukkah Cross Stitch Projects

Hanukkah is a great reason to pull out your cross stitch fabric and thread and stitch up some fun seasonal cross stitch patterns. 

If you have trouble spelling Hanukkah (I know I do!) you’ll want to stitch up the How Do You Spell… project from SKB Cross Stitch Design. This one includes a bunch of different ways to spell the holiday, along with some symbols like a dreidel and menorah. (Technically I think all the ways to spell it are “correct.”) The pattern includes full, fractional and bask titches, and measures 8.5 by 7 inches, or 21.6 by 17.8 cm. It has the date for 2004/5785 but you can easily change the year or leave that part off. 

Another project with some fun word play is the Words to Live By chart from Sam Brie Stitches. This one includes Hanukkah related symbols and word presented crossword puzzle style, which is fun to stitch and to display. The design uses 10 colors and measures 74 by 103 stitches. It’s shown worked on 18 count fabric. 

I may have shared these before, but the Hanukkah patterns from the Frosted Pumpkin Stitchery are so cute they’re definitely worth sharing again. Happy Hanukkah features a menorah, dreidels, gelt, stars and candles, and it fits in a 6-inch hoop. At 75 by 75 stitches, it comes out to 5.4 inches/13.4 cm on 14 count Aida or 28 count linen. They also have this cute little dreidel stamp cross stitch pattern, which is 39 by 49 stitches, or 2.8 by 3.5 inches (about 7 by 9 cm) on 14 count Aida or 28 count linen. 

Works By ABC has a lot of great patterns for Hanukkah, but here are just a couple to get you started. The Rules for Dreidel design is fun for kids and adults and shows the different sides of the dreidel and what it means when you land on them. The stitch count is 62 by 94 and its shown worked on 32 count linen. It calls for three colors. I also like this menorah one, which measures 44 by 49 stitches and uses two colors along with coordinating seed beads. On 32 count linen as shown (equivalent to 16 count Aida) it measures 2.75 by 3.1 inches, or almost 7 by 7.8 cm.
