I Heart You Cross Stitch Pattern

by

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.

Cheerful Sun Cross Stitch Patterns

As I write this, we’re on day three of an expected four days full of rain, so it’s no wonder I wanted to share some sunny cross stitch patterns.

This pretty sun from Anchor via Yarnspirations uses five different shades of cheery yellow. It measures 48 by 48 stitches, or 3.5 inches/8.5 cm square on 14 count fabric.

This smiling yellow sun is a great beginner cross stitch project. The design is from Bella Rose Craft and uses three colors. When worked on 14 count fabric it fits perfectly in a 4-inch hoop.

Add another color and you’ve got this sweet sun cross stitch pattern from Mamas Crafty Basket. It’s also a little larger, at 44 by 44 stitches, but it’s still a great choice for a new stitcher. That comes out to just over 3 inches/7.87 cm on 14 count fabric.

I love this cheerful sun from Sacred Thread Design because it looks like a fancied up version of something a child would draw. This one would be great for a nursery or child’s room, or anywhere that needs a ray of sunshine. It measures 99 by 95 stitches and uses 16 colors. On 14 count fabric it will come out to 7.1 by 6.8 inches, or 18 by 17.2 cm if that’s the way you measure.

If you like your sun with a side of moon, and maybe a planet, this set from Ma Galina Lativa may be what you’re looking for. It’s shown as two different hoops but you could stitch them on the same piece of fabric and frame them together if you’d rather. The sun by itself measures 67 by 66 stitches, while the moon is 52 by 40. 

And to finish up by taking it in a completely different direction, there’s this colorful folk art sun by Tiny House Studio BC. It got let into the party because the sun is smiling, but this is definitely not as easy a pattern as the others I’ve shared. This one uses a whopping 42 colors and is 140 by 175 stitches. That’s 10 by 12.5 inches, or 25.4 by 31.75 cm on 14 count fabric.
