Spring Flower Wreath Cross Stitch Patterns

by

If you’re like me, you’re probably feeling the need to change up some of your decor for spring. These spring wreath cross stitch patterns are great for this season and beyond, won’t look out of place with your Easter decor, and are just super cute to boot!

The little buds on this wreath from So Easy Pattern just feel like spring to me (and I hope the real ones are coming soon!). It measures 116 by 112 stitches, which comes out to 8.29 by 8 inches, or 21.05 by 20.32 cm on 14 count fabric. It uses eight colors. With this one and most of the others of course you can change up the colors to make them represent your favorite flowers or whatever goes with your decor.

This blue floral wreath from Crystal Feather Crafts is so pretty in hues of blue and purple. It’s 157 by 154 stitches, or 11 by 11.2 inches/28.5 by 28 centimeters if you stitch it on 14 count fabric. This one would be really pretty for a wedding gift with the couple’s name and wedding date stitched inside.

Speaking of weddings, this floral heart from DMC via LoveCrafts would be another cute one to make as a wedding gift. This one is rated for beginners and finishes out to about 12 by 13 inches, or 31 by 33 cm.

On DMC‘s website you’ll also find a pretty pink circular floral wreath. It uses seven colors and can be downloaded free when you submit your email, or buy all the supplies in kit form.

And nothing says spring like spring flowers and spring birds, which you’ll find on this cure pattern from Lucie Heaton. The little wren sitting in the flowers adds personality to this project, which uses 37 colors and measures 96 by 96 stitches. That’s 6.8 by 6.8 inches or 17.4 by 17.4 cm, the perfect size for gift giving. If 37 colors is too much for you, choosing variegated thread for some of the flowers or the wren’s body would make it a little simpler.

Cheerful Sun Cross Stitch Patterns

As I write this, we’re on day three of an expected four days full of rain, so it’s no wonder I wanted to share some sunny cross stitch patterns.

This pretty sun from Anchor via Yarnspirations uses five different shades of cheery yellow. It measures 48 by 48 stitches, or 3.5 inches/8.5 cm square on 14 count fabric.

This smiling yellow sun is a great beginner cross stitch project. The design is from Bella Rose Craft and uses three colors. When worked on 14 count fabric it fits perfectly in a 4-inch hoop.

Add another color and you’ve got this sweet sun cross stitch pattern from Mamas Crafty Basket. It’s also a little larger, at 44 by 44 stitches, but it’s still a great choice for a new stitcher. That comes out to just over 3 inches/7.87 cm on 14 count fabric.

I love this cheerful sun from Sacred Thread Design because it looks like a fancied up version of something a child would draw. This one would be great for a nursery or child’s room, or anywhere that needs a ray of sunshine. It measures 99 by 95 stitches and uses 16 colors. On 14 count fabric it will come out to 7.1 by 6.8 inches, or 18 by 17.2 cm if that’s the way you measure.

If you like your sun with a side of moon, and maybe a planet, this set from Ma Galina Lativa may be what you’re looking for. It’s shown as two different hoops but you could stitch them on the same piece of fabric and frame them together if you’d rather. The sun by itself measures 67 by 66 stitches, while the moon is 52 by 40. 

And to finish up by taking it in a completely different direction, there’s this colorful folk art sun by Tiny House Studio BC. It got let into the party because the sun is smiling, but this is definitely not as easy a pattern as the others I’ve shared. This one uses a whopping 42 colors and is 140 by 175 stitches. That’s 10 by 12.5 inches, or 25.4 by 31.75 cm on 14 count fabric.
