I am Not a Cat Cross Stitch Patterns

Cross-stitchers love a good meme, so it was only a matter of time before some stitchers turned the “I’m not a cat” lawyer into stitchable art.

Here are some patterns you can stitch up for your favorite lawyer/cat/meme aficionado, all from Etsy.

I’m not a cat from Lela Co Designs features the funny cat and the line “I’m not a cat.” The design is 75 by 58 stitches or about 5.4 by 4.1 inches stitched on 14 count fabric. It uses 20 colors.

AnnyFunnyXX adds the black square of a Zoom meeting around the cat’s face in their I am not a cat design. This one is 64 by 69 stitches, or 4.5 by 4.9 inches on 14 count fabric and uses 10 colors.

Stay Sane Stitchery has another take on the lawyer cat with a 4-color project. This one is 54 by 65 stitches, or 3.9 x 4.6 on 14 count.

Crafty Queer Designs take the lawyer cat to another cartoony level with a cat that’s dressed like a lawyer. So cute! This one is fit for an 8-inch hoop and uses backstitching to make the face rather than cross-stitching.

Include more of the famous line with this “I’m here live, I’m not a cat” design from Pink Baby Cabbage. It comes out to 4.93 x 3.79 inches and uses 8 colors.

Vet in Stitches includes the full line in their design as well, which is more words than cat but still fun. This one is 45 by 67 stitches and 4 colors. They also have another option that’s a little bigger (90 by 80) if you’re into that.

Or check out this one from perseverate, which looks like it would be pretty quick to stitch up with the simple line text and a small cat design. This one is 38 by 39 stitches so you can stitch it up to share on your next Zoom.

Zoom lawyer cat from the appropriately named Stitched Cat adds sweet green eyes with just a hint of the desperation you feel when you’re on a professional call with an unprofessional filter turned on. It uses 9 colors and is 68 by 70 stitches.

Cute Black Cat Cross Stitch Patterns

I already shared some cross stitch patterns specific to America 250, but if you want to cross stitch something more general for the Fourth of July, these patriotic sampler style patterns are a great place to start.

Stitch up some classic July 4th symbols, from the Statue of Liberty to hot dogs, with this sampler from Voluur. At 197 by 197 stitches, it comes out to 12.31 inches or 31.27 cm on 16 count fabric. It uses 38 colors and one blend, and has full and half cross stitches as well as back stitching.

This sampler from Wombat Stitching is a little more traditional, but it does still have fireworks, something that looks like an ice cream, birds in hats and a stack of sheep for some reason. This one uses nine colors and is 193 by 103 stitches. That makes it 13.8 inches or 35 cm on 14 count fabric.

This smaller sampler from Wonder Stitch US has a rocket, fireworks, flag, star and other elements. It is 86 by 86 stitches and uses 11 colors. On 16 count fabric it comes out to 5.5 inches, or 14 cm square. (I also love their Liberty design, with a house, woman holding a flag, a big flowers stitched like classic star motifs from quilting. There’s also a cat.)

Or try this one from Aliton Embroidery, which features a women in stars, stripes and a festive hat, an eagle, stars, fireworks and a flag, with a fun red, white and blue border. At 98 by 67 stitches, I think it uses five colors or thereabouts. It measures 7 by 4.8 inches, or 17.78 by 12.16 cm, when stitched on 14 count fabric.

Get a totally classic sampler look with this patriotic design that’s not specific to the Fourth of July. Made by Happiness is Heart Made, it features a house, flowers, hearts, classic starts, an alphabet, bunting and more. It uses four colors and measures 129 by 213 stitches. On 14 count fabric it measures 9.21 by 15.21 inches, or 23.4 by 38.6 cm.
