Stitch Up Some Halloween Fun with Fine Frog Stitching

September 12, 2023 by Sarah White

I love seeing all the fun Halloween cross stitch patterns that are out there, and Steph from Fine Frog Stitching recently sent me a note to let me know about all the great stuff brewing over on their website.

Their Halloween collection includes a lot of great patterns. I shared the black cat design last year (check out more black cat cross stitch patterns here), but other options include:

  • witch hats
  • osteomancy sign (shown above)
  • Malphas, prince of hell
  • a crystal ball with skeleton hands saying “I’ll sleep when I’m dead”
  • a snarky bat
  • a handful of acid fire
  • a creepy lady in her mourning veil
  • a skull with mushrooms growing from its eye sockets
  • a snail with a pumpkin for a shell (so cute!)
  • witchy shelves complete with spell books, candles and a witch hat

These designs are so fun and colorful, and most of them are a great way to use black cross stitch fabric if you have any lying around (or they’re a great reason to buy some!).

In addition to the Halloween designs, Fine Frog Stitching has designs that are surreal, mystical and funny, and that are suited for all skill levels. They also have a Patreon that you can join for additional charts and goodies. Check out all the Halloween patterns here.

Looking for more cross stitch patterns to get you through spook season? Here are a few of my favorites that I’ve shared through the years: Best Witches | Halloween pattern set | Tomb Sweet Tomb | Haunted house and pumpkin

Also be sure to check out the collection of more than 50 different Halloween cross stitch patterns from Just Cross Stitch magazine (the issue is a couple of years old but I just clicked over an it looks like it’s still available for sale for all your spooky stitching needs!).

Designer Spotlight: The Sub Rosa Design

Traditional cross stitch designs and samplers with a primitive twist are the specialty of The Sub Rosa Design, an Etsy shop based in Hungary.

The largest section in the store is the Halloween/Thanksgiving section, which includes plenty of witches, crows and pumpkins. One that caught my eye is called Pumpkin Angel, a primitive design that looks like a woman with a pumpkin head with wings standing by a gate with pots of sunflowers.

The design is 199 by 67 stitches, which comes out to about 6.8 by 4 inches/17.5 by 10 cm stitched on 32 count linen as shown.

There are also a lot of Christmas patterns, heavy on Santa and snowmen and reindeer. The Easter and spring section includes projects with birds, lambs and rabbits with an old-fashioned feel.

There’s also a large number of sampler cross stitch patterns, taken from historical designs with their original stitchers names and dates on them. I like Lily Hall’s floral design that was originally stitched in 1884. It’s so fun to look at these (or stitch them!) and think about the women (or more accurately probably children learning to stitch) who made the originals and what their lives were like all those years ago. And how cool it is that we’re still doing the exact same thing all these years later!

In addition to holiday and sampler themed projects, there are also patriotic (Americana) designs, a few projects with bees, and a couple of patterns called Sweet Rosie, which seems to be a character stitched in the projects.

You can check out all of their designs at The Sub Rosa Design. If you check them out I’d love to know what patterns you try and how it goes for you!

Have a cross stitch designer you love who should be in the spotlight? Let me know in the comments.
