Queen Elizabeth Cross Stitch to Celebrate Her Jubilee

The first week in June marks the anniversary of Queen Elizabeth II taking the throne, and in 2022 that’s extra special because it’s her 70th year as queen. Mark the occasion — or make a fun project for any royal family lover on your list — with these Queen Elizabeth cross stitch patterns, found on Etsy.

I love this classic stamp cross stitch pattern from Fiddlesticksau, and it only uses a couple of colors so it’s pretty quick and easy to stitch.

If you want a Jubilee-specific design to stitch, check out this cute one from Vivsters. It looks like a cake covered with British symbols. Or try the commemorative hanging pillows cross stitch kit from Sheena Rogers Designs. So pretty and you can hang these on your Christmas tree or use as decoration for tea parties for years to come.

Finally, you can keep it classic and stitch a queen and a corgi with this sweet design from My Darling Plum. Here she’s dressed in pink but you know she loves wild colors so you can make her dress and hat whatever color you like.

If you’re a fan of detailed and colorful cross stitch patterns, Design for Cross Stitch might have a pattern you want to try. This Etsy shop is based in Spain and has more than 50 designs with a focus on animals, holidays and landscapes.

I’m just going to start with the first pattern that caught my eye when I visited the site, which is this Sakura by the Lake project. This pattern is 200 by 200 stitches and the whole background is stitched, so it’s definitely not for a beginner, but it’s stunning and would be amazing to make for someone who loves Japan. Despite the detail it only uses 24 colors. Worked on 14 count fabric it will measure 14.64 inches, or 37.19 cm.

There are a few other landscape designs, including a canal in Venice and a few cabins in the woods.

The shop also has some cute animal cross stitch, with big, round faces and often holding a warm beverage. Holiday projects focus on Christmas and Halloween. Most of the patterns have a cute, chibi-like feel, but there are some that are more detailed and realistic as well. Take for examples the flower patterns, which are full of details and soft colors.

You’ll also find some fun bookmark cross stitch patterns with a watercolor feel, as well as some that look kind of like paint pouring turned into stitches.

If this sort of stuff sounds like fun to you, check out their Etsy store at Design for Cross Stitch.
