Great Geeky Cross Stitch Patterns

I love geeky craft patterns, and these free geeky cross stitch patterns from HalloweenCostumes.com are really great.

There are patterns related to Star Wars, Doctor Who and Back to the Future as well as Legend of Zelda, Minecraft and Mario Brothers.

The patterns are simple grids (and the patterns are on plain, not gridded, backgrounds) that don’t include color keys, but you can come up with your own color choices from your stash or a trip to the craft store.

They’re also pretty good-sized designs, so you could take out part of them if you want to make smaller projects.

Wondering why there is a new hype on Yoda or Baby Yoda? Have you seen the Star Wars show The Mandalorian ? Well everyone loved Yoda the first time around and now that he is baby Yoda he is even more adorable. This project is easily adapted for a Baby Yoda pattern, craft project and or tutorial.

Natalka Studio is an Etsy shop based in Ukraine with a wide variety of cross stitch designs, including realistic, detailed designs with women doing various things, holiday patterns, geometrics and more.

One of the biggest categories in the shop is called girl cross stitch, which features detailed designs of women with flowing hair doing things like drinking coffee, dancing and carrying flowers. There are seasonal projects in this category as well as a couple having to do with hobbies.

I like the knitting one, of course, and almost shared the sewing one as the featured pattern above until I realized the thread is coming off a cone on the floor and there’s no pedal for running the machine.

The one I am sharing here isn’t actually in that category but it is really cute. Little Girl with Watermelon uses 21 colors and measures 73 by 73 stitches. That’s 5.21 inches or 13.3 cm square if you work it on 14 count fabric. I love her messy hair and the little dress and matching bows. You could also change the colors if you have a little girl who isn’t as into pink (or doesn’t have brown hair).

The largest category on the page is animals, and there you will find wild animals like monkeys, pandas and sloths; ocean creatures such as rays, an octopus and a blue tang fish; frogs, dogs and geese, among others.

There are also a lot of Christmas cross stitch patterns, which include a lot of traditional motifs and some more whimsical themes. I like this one of Santa resting by the fire with his boots off.

In addition to all these you’ll find pretty flowers, a bunch of mostly floral bookmarks, a whole big set of patterns with lemons, and a lot more. The fruits and berries section (if you like fruits other than lemons) would be perfect for decorating your kitchen or breakfast area.

Check out all the great patterns they have to offer at Natalka Studio on Etsy.
