So Easy Pattern is an Etsy storefront that has both cross stitch patterns and machine embroidery patterns. There’s plenty of snark but also cute stuff, landscapes, holiday patterns and more. Let’s check it out!
The biggest category in the shop is funny cross stitch, which covers everything from those snarky projects I just mentioned to a sampler of icons and phrases from the TV show Friends, feminist slogans and more.
Since I generally share a pattern from the biggest category I picked this one about smiling while you still have teeth, which is frankly pretty good advice. This design is 131 by 125 stitches, and uses 10 colors. It comes out to 9.36 by 8.93 inches, or 23.77 by 22.68 cm on 14 count fabric.
The next biggest section is holiday, which is almost entirely Christmas cross stitch patterns, with a couple of Halloween ones thrown in. As a knitter I love the Christmas sweater series you’ll find here, which are small enough to be used as holiday ornaments if you want (I would want).
Next up is nature cross stitch, which is full of full-coverage designs that include mountains, trees, the beach, the moon, that kind of thing.
If those look too complex for you, check out the beginner cross stitch section, which is mostly patterns with text (exclusively or with simple flowers).
In addition to all those categories, you’ll also find animals, patterns for baby and weddings, florals, letters, wreaths, anatomical designs (these are things like hearts, lungs and uteruses with flowers blooming out of them) and bookmarks.
And if you happen to also be into machine embroidery, as of this writing the shop has more than 100 embroidery machine patterns, ranging from seasonal stuff to snarky birthday greetings, images from TV shows and a range of cute rainbows to use on different projects.
