Ted Lasso Cross Stitch Patterns

by

There are so many great shows coming to an end right now, but one of the ones I’m saddest about is Ted Lasso. While the show hasn’t stayed as cheery as it started, I still love this crew of weirdos and their scrappy little team that’s become a family over the years. So in honor of the show’s last episode airing this week I bring you Ted Lasso inspired cross stitch patterns.

Of course we’d have to start with a Believe sign, which you can make to hang above any door you like with this pattern from PandoStitch on Etsy. It uses just two colors and is 75 by 38 stitches, or about 5.3 by 2.7 inches on 14 count fabric, so you can stitch this one up in no time regardless of your skill level.

Andrew Heiss made a cross-stitched version of the AFC Richmond crest that you can download as a chart or an Illustrator file if you want to change it up in any way. It uses four colors and is 48 by 49 stitches.

Ted Lasso characters are known for sharing good advice of the sort that definitely should be embroidered on a pillow, or cross stitched on a wall hanging, anyway. “Don’t You Dare Settle for Fine” is one example converted to stitching by Etsy seller Sunshine and Stitchery. This one is 100 by 50 stitches and uses two colors. It’s mostly letters so this would be a good beginner project (though, in stitching, settling for fine is actually fine).

And if you just need Ted cheering you on, stitch up this thumbs-up cross stitch pattern from Slumber Party DIY on Etsy. This one is a little more involved in that it uses 11 colors in a stitch area of about 5.6 by 6.4 inches, but it’s well worth the effort for a little Midwestern charm.

Of course there are a few slightly salty options available, too. Harness your boss ass bitch energy with help from this cross stitch pattern from The Stitch Crypt, or remember how they used to cheer for Roy Kent with this one from Sonova Stitch.

Toy Story Cross Stitch Patterns

I’m going to go ahead and admit that I totally missed Toy Story 4, so it took my by surprise when Toy Story 5 came out, but let’s celebrate with some Toy Story cross stitch patterns. 

This sweet design including Woody, Buzz and Jessie is from The Xstitch Shop, and they actually have a few different Toy Story options. This one says it is for intermediate stitches, probably because of the size and number of colors, but the sales page doesn’t say how big it is or how many colors it uses. It’s still cute, though!

If you’ve got a fan of Jessie in your household, this collection of Jessie themed icons is super cute to stitch. The design is from Mercury Stitches and it measures 97 by 144 stitches. that comes out to 6.9 by 10.3 inches, or 17.6 by 26.1 cm, and uses 11 colors. It has full and half cross stitches, as well as back stitching and French knots. 

Share the love of friendship with this sweet Woody and Buzz heart hands cross stitch pattern from Pixell Patterns. This design uses eight colors and is shown worked on 14 count fabric, but the notes don’t indicate how bit is is (based on a finished project photo, though, it looks pretty big). 

And for the Buzz Lightyear fans, of course we have to have a “To infinity and beyond” pattern, so here’s one from Silver Lake Stitches. This design is super cute on blue fabric, but use whatever you have. It measures 78 by 92 stitches, which comes out to 5.6 by 6.6 inches, or 14.2 by 16.7 cm, on 14 count fabric. It calls for 14 colors. 

Or if you want to go beyond the core three main character toys, check out this project from ThreeOOne Patterns, which includes our main toys as well as Bo Peep and her sheep, Bullseye the horse, the Slinky dog, Rex, Ham, the Potato Heads and an alien. The design is 310 by 80 stitches, which comes out to 21.14 by 3.5 inches, or 53.7 by 8.9 cm, when worked on 14 count fabric. It uses 65 colors. Or pick out your favorite characters to make a smaller project. 

All those characters and a few more are found on the mini Toy Story character sampler from Knotalot UK (only part of which is shown above). This one uses 31 colors and measures 134 by 108 stitches. It includes whole and fractional stitches, as well as back stitching. On 14 count fabric stitching the whole thing would make a project that’s 9.57 by 7.71 inches, or 24.31 by 19.59 cm.
