Hocus Pocus Cross Stitch Patterns

To celebrate the new Hocus Pocus 2, I thought it would be fun to check out some stitched Sanderson Sisters and Hocus Pocus cross stitch patterns. It’s time to run amuck amuck amuck, or at least stitch up a storm!

Keep it simple with these Hocus Pocus character costumes (and a black cat for good measure). You can add face details if you like or just keep them with blank faces. Get this one from Design by JMS.

If you’re the type who’s always saying movie quotes, this glorious morning cross stitch pattern from Love that Stitch Store might be just the thing for you. Or if you just hate mornings.

Or try the Come We Fly design from Moon Cult 5000, complete with the sisters’ signature brooms. And vacuum.

Then there’s the Sanderson Sampler, with lots of fun elements form the movie, from Geeky Stitches.

xSherrisStitchesx also had a fun circular sampler style pattern that says It’s just a bunch of hocus pocus and amuck, amuck amuck.

The Witch Sisters Coffee Cups pattern made me laugh out loud. If the Sanderson Sisters were coffee drinks, this might be what they would look like. It’s a fun nod to the movie without being too obvious, and it’s great for the PSL loving witch in your life. The design is from MIYA Stitch.

I also love this fake advertisement for the Sanderson Witch Museum, home of the black flame candle, from Rainy Day Cross Stitch. It’s just the thing to stitch up while you want the new movie!

If you love to cross stitch bookmarks, Yellow Birdie Stitches is the Etsy shop for you. The shop is based in the UK and almost all of its designs are bookmarks (there are also some cute square designs).

You’ll find bookmarks about everything from romance novel tropes to Asian inspired towers, cats and Art Nouveau designs.

This one of a mermaid reading would be fun for summer, whether for you or for a mermaid loving person in your life. It measures 24 by 78 stitches and the patterns offer measurements for three different stitch counts, but it’s about 1.75 by 3.5 inches (or 4.4 by 8.8 cm) when stitched on 14 count fabric.

It’s shown here on white fabric but the pattern also recommends light green or blue if you have that in your stash. It calls for 14 colors (or 15 if you choose to use Light Effects thread for part of the project) and it looks like it’s all whole cross stitches with a fair bit of back stitching.

You’ll also need some felt or card stock to finish the back of your bookmark, though it is shown freshly stitched here.

In addition to the bookmarks you’ll also find some square designs that I think are designed to be coasters or mounted onto greeting cards, but of course you could frame them in a small square frame as well.

The cat section has several of these with a cats and bonsai theme. There’s also a coffee set that includes a bookmark, coaster and keychain fob. You’ll also find some seasonal designs.

In addition to the above mentioned categories, you’ll find bookmarks with birds, bugs and dragons; patterns for spring, summer, autumn, Easter, Halloween and Christmas; fantasy designs and projects for tea lovers.

So grab an audiobook and a project form Yellow Birdie Stitches to make for your next paper book read.
