Pot of Gold St Patrick’s Day Cross Stitch Patterns

Stitch up a bit of luck for St. Patrick’s Day or any other time of year with these pot of gold cross stitch patterns!

Get a little luck with this pot of gold luck stamp design from 123Stitch.com. It’s shown worked on plastic canvas but you could use regular fabric instead. It calls for 7 colors and measures 23 by 27 stitches.

The rainbow on this pot of gold cross stitch pattern from Daily Cross Stitch reminds me of a Pride flag. The pattern is 64 by 80 stitches and uses 10 colors.

Stitch up a pot of gold with rainbow and shamrocks with this pattern from Vermont Stitchy Co. The pattern notes are low on details but it does say the finished design is 3.5 inches/8.89 cm square.

Make a sweet sentiment for someone you love with a “You are my pot of gold” design like this one from Climbing Goat Designs. I love the rainbow on this one. It measures 85 by 85 stitches and fits in an 8 inch hoop if worked on 14 count fabric. It uses 13 colors.

You’ll find the same sentiment on this design from Kait’s Crafting Corner. This one is 70 by 69 stitches and it looks like it uses 8 colors.

Or go with “You are Golden” with this cute little design from The Happiest Hoop. This one fits in a 3 inch hoop on 14 count fabric or 28 count evenweave. It uses 10 colors and is 25 by 25 stitches.

There’s a pot of gold included in this collection of Irish images from CrossStitch.com.You can jut pull out the pot of gold and/or the pot with the rainbow or stitch the full design, which comes to 111 by 124 stitches with 30 colors used. The pattern is designed by Susan Saltzgiver.

This last one is a little weird but it is cute so I wanted to include it. It’s a video from CrosStitcHelen on YouTube, and the video description includes a link to the pattern but the link isn’t working. I think that you could figure out the pattern from a screenshot of the finished image, or there’s a version of the chart shown at 2:39 in the video you could screenshot to stitch along.

Cross Stitch a Gnome for St. Patrick’s Day

Easy St. Patrick’s Day Cross Stitch

I was recently approached by Alyssa, the cross stitcher behind the Etsy shop Stitchonomy, to take a look at her cross stitch pattern subscription club, known as The Pattern Club.

I took a look around and there’s a lot of cute stuff and fun options you’ll want to check out, especially if you love themed patterns that are small, easy to stitch and fun to combine.

The Pattern Club combines cross stitching with a social network. When you open the site you’ll see a news feed and have the ability to share updates much like you would on Facebook. You can see who is online, have buddies and post your own updates and photos. The community aspect is a little sparse right now but that should only grow.

The stitch along hub is the place to find the most recent patterns and information on the current stitchalong. As of this writing the Book Lover’s stitchalong was happening, with little designs like Peter Rabbit, a skull for Hamlet and keys for Jane Eyre as well as authors including Arthur Conan Doyle, Charles Dickens and Jane Austen.

Other pattern collections include European designs, Halloween, ocean life, an allotment garden and more. Alyssa tells me there’s a new theme every month that either she picks or members in the community suggest. You can stitch just the patterns you want or put them together to make a larger collage.

The Stitchanomini vault gives you access to all of the previous patterns, and new patterns are released daily through the stitchalong. You can download individual patterns (most of them are 19 by 19 stitches) as PDFs or Pattern Keeper files. The PDFs include a color and black and white chart as well as a floss list.

Another cool thing you can do is build your own pattern collages from all of the squares that have been released. The collage configurator allows you to add patterns of your choosing to a grid ranging from 2×2 patterns up to 4×4. You can scroll through all the current patterns or search by theme and size to make a project that suits your needs. (Above is an example I made kind of at random but you get the idea.)

If you want to check it out, you can grab a three-day free trial and see all the pattern options. Membership is $7.99 a month, or if you pay for a year at a time you’ll get two months free. In addition to the patterns in the club, members receive discounts on patterns and supplies purchased through the shop within the club. Annual members get access to three paid/retired stitchalongs and lifetime members receive all retired patterns.

If you check it out I’d love to hear what you think!
