Modern Wedding Cross Stitch Patterns

Lots of people seem to get married in the summer and fall, so if you’ve got a wedding on your list of social engagements soon, you might want to stitch up a wedding cross stitch pattern.

There are so many of these types of patterns out there it’s really hard to narrow it down, but here are a few that caught my eye on a recent browse around the Internet.

This design from Modern X Stitch features white roses and greenery, but you could change the colors if you know the colors of flowers the couple is using. It includes the first names of the couple and the wedding date and includes a full alphabet and numbers for easy customization. It uses 15 colors and is 10 inches by 10.2 inches on 14 count fabric (that’s 25.4 by 26 cm).

Hoop Modern Stitch has this minimalist design with branches curved into a heart shape and the names and date in the middle. It uses a single color of thread (match the fabric to the color of bridesmaid’s dresses if you know it for extra sweetness) and measures 140 by 130 stitches, which is 10 by 9.29 inches or 25.4 by 23.6 cm on 14 count fabric.

DMC has a free chart for a more colorful heart shaped floral wreath that you could tuck the names or initials of the couple into when you stitch it. It uses 10 colors, which you can alter if you like to suit the color story of the wedding or the couple’s home.

LoveCrafts has a ton of wedding themed cross stitch patterns, so it’s tough to pick just one to highlight, but I love this one with an Art Deco flair. It can be worked as a wedding or anniversary gift, and this one is a full kit with the chart, 16 count cream colored fabric, thread and an organizer for the threads.

Bring a little modern geometric style to the wedding party with the floral wedding cross stitch pattern from Sassy Fox Cross Stitch. This one uses nine colors and is 143 by 128 stitches, which comes out to 10.2 by 9.1 inches or 25.9 by 23.2 cm on 14 count fabric.

Want to stitch something special for an ourdoorsy couple? Life is a Journey Best Traveled Together by One of a Kind Baby Design is a fully personalized chart. You include the names (and presumably, genders) of the couple and you can also change the pets and I think you can add children as well/instead of pets. What a fun way to make it personal without having to do all the modifications yourself!

And if you need a quick cross stitch project to celebrate the happy couple, why not send them a toast? This punny greeting card comes from Stomp Creations, and it looks like it uses four colors. It measures 33 by 37 stitches so you’ll be able to stitch it up in no time for a wedding greeting card the couple is sure to treasure.

My favorite thing about mid to late spring is local strawberries. Strawberries are fun as a graphic element, too, because they’re an interesting shape and cheerful color. Let’s stitch some strawberry cross stitch patterns.

Craft Club Co AU has this cute kind of retro strawberry pattern with a pink checkerboard background. The pattern pages doesn’t give a lot of details but it looks like is uses at least 7 colors and it says it will fit in an 8 by 10 frame when stitched on 14 count fabric.

For a classic farmhouse look, check out the strawberry pattern from Largodargento Shop. This one reminds me of little wild strawberries, and it has a bit of a mandala design with other geometric shapes.

Speaking of classics, you can also stitch a strawberry alphabet sampler from Curious Carrie Designs. It is 54 stitches square, which comes out to 3.86 inches or 9.8 cm square. It calls for 8 colors and was stitched on 32-count linen. Keep it flat or turn it into a biscornu stitched with flowers and bees.

This strawberry pincushion from The SubRosa Design is super sweet and of course could be framed instead of using it as a pincushion if you’d rather. This one is 93 stitches square, or about 5.3 inches/13.5 cm square stitched on 36 count linen as shown.

This graphic, slightly abstract strawberry design from Box and Fox is so much fun and would be great to have on your kitchen wall or in your breakfast area. It measures 98 by 141 stitches, which comes out to 7 by 10 inches or 17.78 by 25.58 cm on 14 count fabric. The design uses 6 colors.

Don’t let the mice get your strawberries! This oddly cute design from Tourmaline Pattern measures 95 by 94 stitches and uses 16 colors. I love the look of it on black fabric, because it really makes the mice and the flowers pop. On 14 count fabric this comes out to 6.7 inches or about 17 cm square.
