There are a lot of fun, made up holidays out there, and one of them is coming up this week. Aug. 3 is apparently National Watermelon Day, so why not celebrate by stitching up some watermelon-themed cross-stitch charts?
Galina Yoho has a couple of cute free watermelon patterns on her blog, both a slice and the watermelon with a slice cut out.
About Cross Stitch has a cute basic watermelon pattern that is worked with variegated thread, making it more colorful without a lot of effort.
Daily Cross Stitch has a super cute pattern with three slices of watermelon, and this friendship bracelet pattern would also be good worked in cross stitch.
Do you ever stitch for strange holidays? I’d love to hear about it!
