St. Patrick’s Day Gnome Cross Stitch Patterns

Gnomes are a fun way to decorate for any holiday, but it seems like they are especially welcome at St. Patrick’s Day. Are gnomes Irish? I don’t know, but they are pretty cute in green.

This one from Favorite Gnome, for example, has a stocking cap covered in shamrocks and long red braids. It uses 21 colors and measures 69 by 111 stitches, which comes out to 12.5 by 20 cm, or 5 by 8 inches on 14 count fabric.

Get some luck of the Irish from your St. Patrick’s Day gnome with this fun design from Neni Design Crafts, which includes a horseshoe and a bag of gold. The design is 80 by 99 stitches, which comes out to 14.5 by 18 cm, or 5.7 by 7.1 inches or 14 count fabric (there are other counts shown in the listing if you want your design to be smaller.

Cross Stitch Foxy adds a beer to their Irish gnome, whose hat has green spots. This one is 72 by 67 stitches and uses 12 colors. On 14 count fabric it comes out to 13 by 12 cm, or 5.2 by 4.8 inches.

Vitalyia Mishchuk’s leprechaun gnome at Cross Stitch Patterns has backstitched shamrocks on his hat and a latte in his hand. It uses 34 colors and comes out to 22.32 by 23.40 cm, or 8.79 x 9.21 inches on 14 count fabric with a stitch count of 123 by 129 stitches. If you like this style she has a whole set of seasonal gnomes that are cheaper to buy as a set.

And if you want to get totally silly with your St. Patrick’s Day cross stitch gnome, check out this design from Piccola Parigi. I really want to call it cheeky even though it’s not that, but we can say thank goodness for a long beard and a well-placed shamrock! The design is 84 by 88 stitches and uses 26 colors. On 14 count fabric that comes out to 6 by 6.29 inches, which is about 15 by 16 cm.

Unique St. Patrick's Day Cross Stitch Patterns

Summer is the time of patriotic holidays in the United States, so it’s a great time to stitch up some red, white and blue cross stitch projects for the Fourth of July or just for summer decor.

Curious Carrie Designs has this cute Americana pattern that would be great to have on display all summer long. It includes an American flag in a watering can full of flowers. The design measure 55 by 60 stitches, which comes out to 4 by 4.375 inches, or 10 by a little more than 11 cm, when worked on 14 count fabric. (The sample is shown on 32 count linen, which is more like 16.) It uses 16 colors.

This Fourth of July design from Lotus Lake Stitching is specific to the holiday, but it wouldn’t have to be if you didn’t stitch the words. The little buildings and fireworks are so cute, and I love that random red, white and blue bird. It uses nine colors and measures 247 by 83 stitches. That’s 17.3 by 5.9 inches, or about 44 by 15 cm on 14 count fabric.

The burlap colored fabric on this project from Needle Treasures Nook makes it look especially rustic, but it would have a different look with pure white or light blue fabric behind the stitches. This one uses nine colors and is 72 by 71 stitches, and was worked on tea-dyed 36 count linen fabric.

The Sub Rosa Design has this patriotic garden design full of geometric red, white and blue flowers. This is one of a series of their designs so if you like it you should check them all out. This one is 131 by 71 stitches and is about 7.8 by 4 inches/20 by 10 cm on 36 count linen.

Wombat Stitching offers this one that is fully Fourth of July (and a little Captain America for fun I guess). It uses nine colors and is 193 by 193 stitches. That comes out to about 13.8 inches or 35 cm square on 14 count fabric.
