Designer Spotlight: StudioHMP

August 23, 2024 by Sarah White

Classic old world cross stitch designs and finished pieces are what you will find at Ukraine-based Etsy shop StudioHMP.

This designer has about 60 cross stitch designs as I write this, with an emphasis on classic samplers, florals, birds and geometric designs.

The colors are often muted pastels, which gives the projects even more of a peaceful, classic look.

They’re not all totally traditional, however. Take this Quaker style sampler that might look rather traditional at first, but the more you look the more you see: from the text “first I drink the coffee” to the coffee grinders and post to the border made out of coffee-bean shaped motifs.

The pattern calls for five colors and you can stick with the muted palette of the original or go bolder as you like for your kitchen. It uses 194 by 196 stitches, which comes out to 13.9 by 14 inches or 35.2 by 35.6 cm on 14 count fabric. (It’s just a little bigger than 12 by 12 on 16 count if you want it to be a little smaller.)

There are a few Easter and St. Patrick’s Day designs, as well as Christmas, Halloween, Thanksgiving and fall. You’ll also find a collection of designs of small animals stitches into little geometric frames. These designs include animals such as a panda, turtle, racoon and hippo.

If you don’t want to stitch the projects yourself or you’re looking for a special gift for a fellow stitcher, there’s also a collection of finished cross stitch projects available for purchase. These are boxes, needle cushions, ornaments or framed designs.

The shop isn’t arranged into categories other than cross stitch patterns and finished cross stitch, so you’ll have to browse around a bit to find what you’re looking for, or do a keyword search if you’re looking for an animal, a holiday design, a sampler, etc.

Check out all this shop has to offer at the StudioHMP storefront on Etsy.

Patriotic Cross Stitch Patterns

Summer is the time of patriotic holidays in the United States, so it’s a great time to stitch up some red, white and blue cross stitch projects for the Fourth of July or just for summer decor.

Curious Carrie Designs has this cute Americana pattern that would be great to have on display all summer long. It includes an American flag in a watering can full of flowers. The design measure 55 by 60 stitches, which comes out to 4 by 4.375 inches, or 10 by a little more than 11 cm, when worked on 14 count fabric. (The sample is shown on 32 count linen, which is more like 16.) It uses 16 colors.

This Fourth of July design from Lotus Lake Stitching is specific to the holiday, but it wouldn’t have to be if you didn’t stitch the words. The little buildings and fireworks are so cute, and I love that random red, white and blue bird. It uses nine colors and measures 247 by 83 stitches. That’s 17.3 by 5.9 inches, or about 44 by 15 cm on 14 count fabric.

The burlap colored fabric on this project from Needle Treasures Nook makes it look especially rustic, but it would have a different look with pure white or light blue fabric behind the stitches. This one uses nine colors and is 72 by 71 stitches, and was worked on tea-dyed 36 count linen fabric.

The Sub Rosa Design has this patriotic garden design full of geometric red, white and blue flowers. This is one of a series of their designs so if you like it you should check them all out. This one is 131 by 71 stitches and is about 7.8 by 4 inches/20 by 10 cm on 36 count linen.

Wombat Stitching offers this one that is fully Fourth of July (and a little Captain America for fun I guess). It uses nine colors and is 193 by 193 stitches. That comes out to about 13.8 inches or 35 cm square on 14 count fabric.
