Mushroom Cross Stitch Patterns

by

The other day I came across a mushroom cross stitch pattern that I have shared with you before (you can find it here!) and it got me thinking about more mushrooms.

To be honest I think about mushrooms a lot because my daughter loves them and they are fun to craft in all sorts of genres. (I made a crocheted mushroom earlier this summer, and have collected mushroom knitting patterns, too.)

This sweet little cross stitch pattern of mushrooms in a jar would be so cute hanging in a kitchen or stitched on your tea towels. If you stitch it on fine enough fabric you could even turn it into a little necklace to fulfill all your cottagecore fantasies. The pattern has two versions, one with more details, and uses eight to ten colors depending on the version you choose. It measures 24 by 29 stitches and you can grab it on Etsy from Snail Fishes Stitches.

Art Inspirate on Etsy has another great design with three mushrooms of different sizes and a bit of grass. It is 51 by 54 stitches and uses nine colors. It comes out to 3.64 by 3.86 inches on 14 count fabric and is all whole cross stitches, so it’s a nice one for new stitchers looking to increase their skills.

A sweet cluster of mushrooms is hanging out with some greenery in this design from Allie Page Embroidery Shop on Etsy. If you work this one on 16-count fabric, it will fit into a 3-inch hoop. So cute!

Stitch up some mushrooms in a nighttime scene with this design from Harp Seal Crafts. Of course this one is ideal on dark-colored fabric, and it uses 15 colors. The design is 83 by 85 stitches, which measures 5.93 by 6.07 inches on 14 count fabric.

If you’re looking for something a little less realistic, I love this mushroom house cross stitch pattern from Shannon Christine Designs. The design is 53 by 58 stitches, and I think it uses a little bit of beading to make the house more magical, but of course you could leave that off if you want.

Toy Story Cross Stitch Patterns

I’m going to go ahead and admit that I totally missed Toy Story 4, so it took my by surprise when Toy Story 5 came out, but let’s celebrate with some Toy Story cross stitch patterns. 

This sweet design including Woody, Buzz and Jessie is from The Xstitch Shop, and they actually have a few different Toy Story options. This one says it is for intermediate stitches, probably because of the size and number of colors, but the sales page doesn’t say how big it is or how many colors it uses. It’s still cute, though!

If you’ve got a fan of Jessie in your household, this collection of Jessie themed icons is super cute to stitch. The design is from Mercury Stitches and it measures 97 by 144 stitches. that comes out to 6.9 by 10.3 inches, or 17.6 by 26.1 cm, and uses 11 colors. It has full and half cross stitches, as well as back stitching and French knots. 

Share the love of friendship with this sweet Woody and Buzz heart hands cross stitch pattern from Pixell Patterns. This design uses eight colors and is shown worked on 14 count fabric, but the notes don’t indicate how bit is is (based on a finished project photo, though, it looks pretty big). 

And for the Buzz Lightyear fans, of course we have to have a “To infinity and beyond” pattern, so here’s one from Silver Lake Stitches. This design is super cute on blue fabric, but use whatever you have. It measures 78 by 92 stitches, which comes out to 5.6 by 6.6 inches, or 14.2 by 16.7 cm, on 14 count fabric. It calls for 14 colors. 

Or if you want to go beyond the core three main character toys, check out this project from ThreeOOne Patterns, which includes our main toys as well as Bo Peep and her sheep, Bullseye the horse, the Slinky dog, Rex, Ham, the Potato Heads and an alien. The design is 310 by 80 stitches, which comes out to 21.14 by 3.5 inches, or 53.7 by 8.9 cm, when worked on 14 count fabric. It uses 65 colors. Or pick out your favorite characters to make a smaller project. 

All those characters and a few more are found on the mini Toy Story character sampler from Knotalot UK (only part of which is shown above). This one uses 31 colors and measures 134 by 108 stitches. It includes whole and fractional stitches, as well as back stitching. On 14 count fabric stitching the whole thing would make a project that’s 9.57 by 7.71 inches, or 24.31 by 19.59 cm.
