Tea Cross Stitch Patterns

by

It wasn’t intentional that I shared a coffee-related pattern in my latest designer spotlight and then had a collection of tea cross stitch patterns for my next post. But I imagine we could all use all the caffeine we can get, so let’s dig into these fun tea patterns!

I love this witchy watercolor tea pattern (it could also be coffee, who can say?) and think it would be a great one to stitch up for a tea or coffee loving friend. It comes from Pixel and Floss, and measures 124 by 194 stitches. It uses a whopping 55 colors to get that awesome look.

Need some help remembering how long to steep your favorite teas? This cross stitch pattern is also a recipe, including the time and temperature for preparing white, green, herbal, red or black tea. It comes from 1000sPatterns (an authorized seller of Your Briar Patch designs) and uses 24 colors and three blends in a stitch area of 130 by 108 stitches. It comes out to 9.29 by 7.71 inches and 23.6 by 19.6 cm on 14 count fabric.

Another cute one featuring different varieties of tea, this time represented by different styles of teapots and cups, comes from Stitchrovia. This would be super cute by your tea area. It measures 117 by 139 stitches and uses 16 colors. For a smaller project you can just stitch one or several of the pots or cups and change the colors to suit your decor.

If you’re a fan of Star Trek you’ll want to stitch up Captain Picard’s favorite tea order to hang in your ready room. This one from Stitch Riot Designs uses eight colors and measures 72 by 91 stitches. That comes out the 5.14 by 6.5 inches, or 13 by 16.5 cm, when stitched on 14 count fabric.

The Fancy a Cuppa? design from The Frosted Pumpkin Stitchery is really cute with smiling teacup, pot and sugar cubes. The design is 54 by 107 stitches and is 3.9 by 7.6 inches (about 10 by 19.3 cm) on 14 count Aida or 28 count linen.

Hanukkah Cross Stitch Projects

Hanukkah is a great reason to pull out your cross stitch fabric and thread and stitch up some fun seasonal cross stitch patterns. 

If you have trouble spelling Hanukkah (I know I do!) you’ll want to stitch up the How Do You Spell… project from SKB Cross Stitch Design. This one includes a bunch of different ways to spell the holiday, along with some symbols like a dreidel and menorah. (Technically I think all the ways to spell it are “correct.”) The pattern includes full, fractional and bask titches, and measures 8.5 by 7 inches, or 21.6 by 17.8 cm. It has the date for 2004/5785 but you can easily change the year or leave that part off. 

Another project with some fun word play is the Words to Live By chart from Sam Brie Stitches. This one includes Hanukkah related symbols and word presented crossword puzzle style, which is fun to stitch and to display. The design uses 10 colors and measures 74 by 103 stitches. It’s shown worked on 18 count fabric. 

I may have shared these before, but the Hanukkah patterns from the Frosted Pumpkin Stitchery are so cute they’re definitely worth sharing again. Happy Hanukkah features a menorah, dreidels, gelt, stars and candles, and it fits in a 6-inch hoop. At 75 by 75 stitches, it comes out to 5.4 inches/13.4 cm on 14 count Aida or 28 count linen. They also have this cute little dreidel stamp cross stitch pattern, which is 39 by 49 stitches, or 2.8 by 3.5 inches (about 7 by 9 cm) on 14 count Aida or 28 count linen. 

Works By ABC has a lot of great patterns for Hanukkah, but here are just a couple to get you started. The Rules for Dreidel design is fun for kids and adults and shows the different sides of the dreidel and what it means when you land on them. The stitch count is 62 by 94 and its shown worked on 32 count linen. It calls for three colors. I also like this menorah one, which measures 44 by 49 stitches and uses two colors along with coordinating seed beads. On 32 count linen as shown (equivalent to 16 count Aida) it measures 2.75 by 3.1 inches, or almost 7 by 7.8 cm.
