Quick Little Valentine’s Day Cross Stitch Patterns

After talking about mini cross-stitch patterns the other day, I decided to look around for some small Valentine’s Day cross stitch patterns that would be quick and easy to stitch.

Whether you just started stitching or just want a fun little project that will be done in a flash, these Valentine’s Day projects are perfect.

Floss & Fleece has a cute little collection of hearts and arrows and shows how to use them to make hair clips and necklace pendants. These free patterns are shown on a chart you can grab from the website.

Cross Me Not has a little free love letter cross stitch pattern that would be cute to add to a collection or on a Valentine card. If you stitch it on white fabric it will take no time at all.

Since I brought them up again, Teeny Weeny XStitch has Valentine’s Day minis, too. This set includes 20 little designs, each of which individually is smaller than 3 inches. The whole sampler is 219 by 221 stitches, or 15.6 by 15.8 inches/39.7 by 40.1 cm on 14 count fabric, and uses 51 colors.

These little gift tags from FUDA Stitch would also make cute cards. Each design is 28 by 42 stitches and comes out to 2 by 3 inches on 14 count fabric, perfect for adding to a little tag or card. The pattern includes five designs.

This free camper pattern from Kari Sweeten on U Create Crafts is super cute and you could make it in different colors with different symbols for different seasons if you want.

I feel like I have maybe shared these before, but the ombre hearts from Little Lovelies are worth sharing again and again because it’s such a simple and effective project. This would be a fun project to play with thread blending on, too. (This would also be fun for a project like my Valentine’s day bookmark.)

And if you want hearts with different styles, Aliton Embroidery has a set of three little heart cross stitch patterns. Each one fits in a 3-inch hoop and uses three colors.

How to Turn Your Cross Stitch into a Patch

Summer is the time for sweet treats, whether eating them or stitching them. This collection of patterns is full of designs that are good enough to eat. Almost.

This year of ice creams from Simone Balman Art is lots of fun, and you could also stitch up these treats individually if you’d rather. The full piece is 210 by 300 stitches, though it’s not full coverage. It uses 25 colors and comes out to 13.6 by 20.1 inches, or 34.5 by 51.2 cm, as shown on 14 count fabric.

These mini Popsicles from Mariana Gonclaves ART as super sweet and quick to stitch. These would also be a fun border to another summer project. The full design is 43 by 46 stitches, which is 3.1 by 3.3 inches, or 7.8 by 8.3 cm, on 14 count fabric.

Sam X Stitch has this fun sweet treat sampler, which again would be fun to stitch as individual pieces (maybe on napkins?). In all it calls for 18 colors and measures 153 by 153 stitches. That comes out to 10.93 inches or 27.75 cm on 14 count fabric.

Another great sampler is this one with ice cream and other sweet treats from Cute Patterns by Maria. At 119 by 132 stitches total, working the full pattern would be about 8.6 by 9.4 inches, or 22 by 24 cm on 14 count fabric, and it uses 33 colors. You can also stitch individual designs, which range in height from 35 to 45 stitches, and in width from 11 to 28.

This collection of four sundae patterns from Stichrovia would be fun to make for a kitchen or a teen’s room. Each pattern is around 40 by 50 stitches, so they should fit in a four or five inch hoop if worked on 14 count fabric.

Or stitch up one of the treats from Stitch Chart Studio‘s collection of seven ice cream cross stitch patterns. These range in size and in number of colors needed, but most would fit in a five or six in hoop (and one in a four inch hoop).
