Free Winnie the Pooh Cross-Stitch Patterns

by

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.

Have you read?

Cross Stitch a Gorgeous Cornucopia Wreath

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.
