Spring Flower Cross Stitch Patterns

I know it’s not until April we talk about showers bringing flowers, but if you need to see some blooms in the meantime, why not stitch yourself a bunch of spring flowers with these cross stitch patterns?

Crafting is My Hobby has a bunch of cute and easy flower cross stitch patterns that look in the photos to be stitched onto crochet, but of course you can use them on regular cross stitch fabric or whatever other fabric you like. Each one is an individual download.

The spring floral hoop art from Amanda G Cross Stitch on Etsy is so cheerful and pretty it can make any cold, snowy day feel a little brighter as you stitch it. It features daffodils, crocuses and other spring flowers, and the design is 130 by 139 stitches. If you work it on 14 count fabric it will fit in a 12-inch hoop. It uses 29 colors.

If you’re looking for something a little simpler, Stitching Space has a free daffodil/narcissus cross stitch pattern designed by Filippova Tatiana that uses eight colors and two blends. (The notes are in Russian but you can figure it out without words.)

I’m not sure these yellow flowers from Box and Fox are meant to be any particular kind of flower from nature, but they sure are cheerful, and you could make them in any colors you like. This little pattern is only 26 by 40 stitches so you could stitch up a whole field of them in lots of different colors in no time.

I also love this little sampler of lots of different flowers and bugs from Etsy seller Cross Stitch Paterns. It has a very folk art feel, and while it’s cute all stitched together you could also break out individual designs to stitch on cards, cloth napkins, or anywhere else that needs a floral touch. The full pattern is 170 by 202 stitches and uses 12 colors in cross stitch and back stitch.

Artmishka Cross Stitch is an Etsy shop based in Italy with lots of whimsical and colorful designs and an emphasis on animals, flowers and landscapes. Let’s take a closer look!

The animal section is by far the largest, and it includes everything from realistic birds to cartoony cats, a set of little chick ornaments for Easter and a blackwork butterfly, to name a few. There are little animals in clothes and scarves, and this sweet folk art style owl in modern colors.

This one (and lots of them, really, I think) was designed as nursery decor, and it calls for 10 colors, which you can of course change up to suit your decor, nursery or otherwise. The design is 95 by 95 stitches, which comes out to about 7 inches or 18 cm square on 14 count fabric or 28 count evenweave stitched over two strands.

Another large category is flowers, which includes birth month flower designs, flowers that look hand drawn and colored, floral wreaths with teapots and wedding floral cross stitch designs.

The sampler section includes a variety of small patterns, images with words, colorful geometric and floral designs, and a few holiday patterns. Christmas designs include stamps, Christmas trees, stocking, snowmen and a cute box of snowflake shaped Christmas cookies in a box with a mug of hot chocolate, to name a few designs.

There are also a fair number of designs in both the landscape and cottage categories. These include iconic landmarks and colorful sunsets, and buildings from beach houses to a mushroom cottage, book shop and a cottage with flowers bursting out of the roof. There’s also a section called girl, which has designs of a little girl in different outfits and situations and some other characters.

Other categories on the site with smaller numbers of patterns include boy designs, princesses, plants, hobby themed designs (sewing, knitting, baking), art and bookmarks. There are also a handful of cross stitch kits, all of the little girl character.
