Spring Flower Wreath Cross Stitch Patterns

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.

I don’t usually cross stitch text or add words to my cross stitch projects. Sometimes I will sign things using basic block lettering worked in backstitch (luckily my initials are pretty easy to stitch), but if you give your cross stitch as a gift or otherwise want to personalize it, adding text is a great way to go.

But if a project didn’t already come with text, and you don’t want to draw your own, you’ll need a good cross stitch font that you can use for your project.

I like collecting fonts that are easy to read and to stitch and that would be good for lots of different uses.

For example I really like this bold alphabet font from Cross Stitch with Art, which has both capital and lowercase letters as well as numbers if you need them for dates or other information on your design. The capital letters are an inch/2.5 cm/14 stitches tall, which makes it easy to figure out how much space you need to leave for them. It’s a nice, basic, readable serif font you can use for lots of project.

If you want a script font that’s still really readable, check out Magic Calligraphy from Soft Pattern Designs. This hand drawn font has upper case letters around 28 stitches tall, with lower case letters mostly being around 20 stitches (though the ones that go up or down a lot like f, p and y are bigger). The numbers also vary a bit in size but range from 25 to 29 stitches.

Sometimes you just want a classic font that looks like sports lettering, and in that case you’re going to need Varsity, an all caps font from Stitch Mod. This one has letters that are 21 stitches tall, and it includes capital letters and numbers. But there are definitely times this one would come in handy!

Another sometimes useful and really cute font is this alphabet block letters alphabet from Stitch Junction. These letters are all upper case and look like classic building blocks, and there are also numbers available. This one would be perfect for a birth announcement project or some other cross stitch for the baby’s room.
