Easter Bunnies Free Cross-Stitch Pattern

Decorate your home for Easter with these cute little bunnies – you can use plastic canvas to turn them into charms, keychain pendants or even fridge magnets!

The free pattern designed by Nadezda Gavrilenkova uses the DMC color palette, the recommended canvas count being 14. A single bunny is 18 by 36 stitches, or about 1.4 by 2.8 inches. The patterns are mostly whole cross stitches, with backstitching used for facial features and to outline the bunnies.

You can stitch them on regular canvas and cut them out, or use plastic canvas for a bit more durability. On regular canvas you could make them into little ornaments for an Easter tree, patches to wear on a jacket, or stick a magnet to the back.

The plastic canvas version would be great as a keychain or a magnet, or if your kid loves backpack bling as much as mine does, make it into a pin or add a hook so they can attach it to their backpacks.

You could also just stitch it on regular canvas and not cut it out for a cute mini frame project. Or stitch a bunch with different patterns and frame them together!

The pattern is available as a free download from Wizardi.

As a knitter, I love a good sheep motif, so let’s take a look at some cute sheep cross stitch patterns.

If you want to stitch a little sheep, this mini square from Good Dog Needleworks is a nice choice. It uses just three colors and measures 32 by 32 stitches. That’s 2.2 inches or about 5.5 cm square if you stitch it on 14 count fabric.

I also love these two little sheep, which you can stitch together or in individual hoops and shown. The designs are form Threadbound Art and use six colors. They are slightly different in size, with one being 21 by 17 stitches and the other 21 by 20. They fit in four inch frames if you work them on 14 count fabric.

You can stitch a sweet sheep bookmark with this design from Kits by SA Stitch. This is not for the person who doesn’t like back stitch, because there’s a lot of that here, but it is really cute. It measures 30 by 91 stitches and uses 10 colors. That will make your bookmark about 2.4 by 6.5 inches, or 6 by 16.5 cm on 14 count fabric.

Stitch a pretty scene of sheep in a meadow with this design from Motok Nytok. It uses 21 colors and the design is 99 by 73 stitches. On 14 count fabric that makes it about 7.07 by 5.21 inches, or 17.96 by 13.24 cm.

This yarn full of cross stitch sheep has a bit of a knitting twist because the sheep all look like they have sweaters on. The design is from Soda Stitch Design and it measures 179 by 216 stitches. The full design uses 27 colors. On 14 count fabric it will work out to 12.78 by 15.42 inches, or 32.48 by 39.19 cm.

Another great one with a knitting theme is this one where the wool is coming off the sheep and straight onto the needles. This one is from Happy Cross Stitchers and uses 12 colors. The pattern is 137 by 137 stitches, which comes out to 9.7 inches or 24.86 cm square on 14 count fabric. This would be a fun one to stitch for the knitter in your life (even if that is you).

Or you can stitch the field of sheep of a knitter’s dreams with the Happy Sheep chart from Charts and Stuff. These per-colored sheep can be stitched as shown or worked in any colors you like. The eyes are French knots but you can just stitch them in white if you’d rather.
