Free Winnie the Pooh Cross-Stitch Patterns

by 2 Comments

Jan. 18 is Winnie the Pooh Day (because it is creator A.A. Milne’s birthday) so it’s the perfect time to stitch up a Winnie the Pooh cross stitch pattern.

I did a little hunting online and here are a few free patterns I found:

Gvello Stitch has a lot of different Winnie the Pooh cross stitch charts, including Pooh by himself or with Piglet, one of Piglet and Roo, one of Roo alone and one of Tigger (they’re mixed in with other cartoon charts on this page, but most are Winnie the Pooh related).

My Cross Stitch Patterns has a Winnie the Pooh cowboy and Pooh Bear hugging a heart among others (search the site for a full list).

Cross Stitching Biz has a cute design with Winnie the Pooh and some bees, while Lena Patterns has a few others, including this cute sleeping Pooh.

And there’s a super cute Pooh alphabet over at Cross Stitch Mania, but it’s not an actual chart so you’d have to chart it out yourself to use it. But it’s great for inspiration and probably worth the trouble to chart out a single letter or some initials for a special project.

Have you stitched any Winnie the Pooh cross stitch projects before? I know I did a few when I was a kid.

  1. Hi,

    I am going to make the winnie pooh cowboy but needing to know size of Aida cloth I need to purchase

  2. It says on the design that the size is 4.43 by 6.93 inches (I assume that’s on 14 count but it doesn’t say) so you would need it to be however much bigger than that you want if you’re going to frame it to a particular size.

Designer Spotlight: Cross Stitch Foxy

Cross Stitch Foxy has a huge selection of cross stitch patterns perfect for gifts or using in your own home decor. As of this writing there are more than 900 patterns listed, so there’s no way I can cover them all, but let’s take a quick peek at some of the options.

As with many cross stitch designers, Cross Stitch Foxy has a lot of holiday themed patterns, including Christmas, Halloween and Easter and St. Patrick’s Day. There are patriotic American patterns, feminist patterns and so much more.

Since we’re heading into the Christmas season as I write this, I thought I’d highlight one of the more than 100 Christmas listings in the shop. These Christmas mugs would be cute to have hanging in your kitchen or anywhere else all winter long.

The full pattern is 86 by 101 stitches, which comes out to 6.1 by 7.2 inches, or 5.5 by 18 cm, when stitched on 14 count fabric. It calls for 19 colors. Of course you could also stitch a single mug if you’d rather, or put them into individual frames.

One thing that is fun about Cross Stitch Foxy’s projects is that the intention is that to some extent you can use what you have to make the projects. None of the projects include single stitches of a color, and colors can be replaced with the colors you have or use blends made up of colors you already have, making the projects more cost effective and environmentally friendly. Of course for holiday patterns you’ll want some holiday colors, but there’s wiggle room to use the threads you already own, which is nice.

In addition to the categories I already mentioned, there are many other patterns, including a wide selection of seasonal gnomes, patterns with cats and dogs, food and drink patterns and a nice collection of flowers and plants, just to name a few. There’s probably something for everyone in this store, so go check it out at Cross Stitch Foxy on Etsy.
