I Heart You Cross Stitch Pattern

January 30, 2023 by Sarah White

This cross-stitching design features a sweet sentiment expressing love, using shorthand for “I heart you.” The design features a heart shape in place of the word “heart” and the letter “u” instead of the word “you.” The designer of the design chose to use black thread for the letters and a variegated thread for the heart, but the text notes that you can choose the colors that you prefer for your own design.

The design is said to be quick to stitch up, and it can be put in a small frame or used as a card. The design has a dimension of 14 count fabric which is perfect to fit in a three-inch hoop. This means that for each inch of the design, there are 14 threads of fabric. The result of this is a fine, detailed finished design.

It is a great project for those who like to express their feeling with handmade things, or for those who want to try cross-stitching but are not sure where to start. The design is simple yet sweet, making it easy to work on, and it also doesn’t take much time to finish. With this design, you can personalize it, with colors of your choosing and place it in a frame or even give it as a gift to someone you love.

Reasons to Love Small Cross Stitch Designs

This post is inspired by a post I saw over at Caterpillar Cross Stitch about why small cross stitch patterns are great, but I can tell you my own stories of cross stitching woes, too.

I have always been a fan of small projects because I just don’t have that much stamina when it comes to cross stitch (or much else). I feel like an hour of knitting or crocheting gets you a lot more to show for your time than an hour of cross stitch, especially when you’re working on a complicated project.

Which is why a project I started for my daughter probably more than a year ago is still unrecognizable as its subject because I’ve barely done any work on it. (I’d like it to be done either for her birthday in September or for Christmas, so I’d better get over my big-project issues and get to stitching.)

The post covers a lot of reasons to love small projects, including that they are light on your budget (both monetary and time wise). It also looks at the basic supplies you need for projects big or small and gives you lots of ideas for how to use small cross stitch projects as decor or to make into gifts.

There are also tips for success when working on small projects. You might think it’s fine to rush but attention to detail is super important when you’re working on a small scale because a misplaced stitch or two can really make a difference when there are relatively few stitches in your project to start with.

Check out the post over at Caterpillar Cross Stitch, and let me know what you love about small cross stitch patterns. Or if you’re a fan of the epic projects, let me know that, too. Maybe you’ll convince me to give it more of a try!
