Easy Heart Cross Stitch Pattern

It feels a little weird to call this cross stitch when there aren’t actually any crossed stitches in it, but I don’t know what else you would call this sweet heart. I guess maybe it’s technically backstitch?

It’s made with uncrossed stitches, which gives it a fun, drawn look.

The pattern uses one color (it would be pretty in variegated thread, too) and is 28 by 30 stitches, or about 2 by 2.25 inches on 14-count fabric. Perfect to fit in a 3-inch hoop!

I don’t know when or why I cam across this cross stitch pattern, but it’s been on my list to share for a while and today’s the day.

This design from AllaboutxStitch features a giant, colorful wreath with all sorts of vegetables including eggplant, carrots, corn, tomatoes, cabbage, peppers and onions. There’s an artichoke, some beets, peas and mushrooms, too.

The background of the design is filled with text of different kinds of vegetables, which I assume are all included in the design somewhere (of course you could leave that off and you’ll still have plenty of stitching to do!). There’s so much going on here I think you’d have to stitch it to be able to really take it all in.

There’s even a couple of bees hovering around. The detail on this project is just so fun and I love the highlights on some of the vegetables that make them look just that much more realistic.

The pattern measures 194 by 194 stitches. On 16 count fabric that comes out to a little more than 12 inches or 30.8 cm square.

The pattern listing doesn’t say how many colors are used in the sample, but it’s definitely a lot. Just by the size and the number of colors I would call this an advanced cross stitch pattern, but wouldn’t it be amazing to have for your fall and Thanksgiving decor? I’d plan the whole holiday meal around this thing if I successfully finished it. (Mostly because I’ve never done anything that big and I would want to show it off in any way possible).

You can grab a copy of this pattern from AllaboutxStitch on Etsy. And while you’re over there you can check out their other amazing and colorful fruit and vegetable designs if you want to stitch more produce-inspired decor.
