Last Minute Minis! A week of traditional cross stitch sampler motifs for last minute gifts.

I was thinking the other day that even though Christmas is the perfect time of year for cross stitch gifts, cross stitch can be difficult to do last minute. This gave me the idea of putting together some fun free cross stitch samplers with mini cross stitch motifs that are small enough for you to stitch up in less than thirty minutes. Each cross stitch motif is tiny and perfect for cards, gift tags, or even just a mini sampler. OR you can stitch the whole cross stitch sampler design.

These small cross stitch patterns are great for a beginner because you can use pretty much any colour of floss you have on hand and some motifs are less than 30 stitches but are detailed enough to be really satisfying little projects.

Today we have a tiny bird cross stitch sampler. Birds are a very traditional cross stitch motif and symbolise things like beauty, fertility, and spiritual concepts of the soul and rebirth. This free traditional cross stitch sampler also incorporates industrious bees and garden flowers. All of the mini cross stitch motifs are surrounded by a geometric floral border to make a complete cross stitch sampler.

Ortstravaganza! Two Weeks of Lovely Random-ish Cross Stitch Patterns Perfect for Christmas Gifts.

Welcome to Ortstravaganza! Two weeks of random-ish free cross patterns to download. Sometimes a cross stitch design idea will come to me and I will make a pattern but it doesn't fit anywhere in the schedule or there wasn't enough in the idea for a whole week of free cross stitch patterns.

These go in what I call my Ort cloud. They sort of sit there on my computer until I think of something to go with them or can develop the idea further or, like right now, I just can't wait to publish them.

So for two weeks all the free cross stitch designs won't have a particular theme but they all would make super gifts because most of them are small to medium sized. They cover a wide range of cross stitch skills as well. So if you are looking for a challenge or just a quick and easy cross stitch pattern there is bound to be something to suit you!

Today's free cross stitch pattern is this big tropical toucan cross stitch design.

I used to have this stuffed toy (I collected stuffed animals as a kid) that I got from a very early trip to Vancouver. It was a fuzzy toucan and his name was Toucan Tango. I loved puns even when I was like three years old. Don't know what happened to Toucan Tango and that makes me kind of sad now.

This toucan cross stitch pattern will add a super splash of colour and tropical flair to your decor. I was planning on doing a whole week of tropical designs but they have not quite materialised and in the meantime this fantastic free toucan cross stitch pattern was rotting away!

A Christmas Dove Cross Stitch Design

It might be a bit early for free Christmas cross stitch patterns but I have been going through my back catalogue and want to give some of the older designs some new life. Weirdly it looks like I never actually published this Christmas Dove cross stitch pattern on the website at all so I thought why not do a bonus weekend design for you.

This is a super simple cross stitch design of a Christmas dove that would be great for a new cross stitcher. It is also a really versatile cross stitch pattern because there are only two colours that you can switch out for any colours you prefer. It doesn't even have to be for Christmas!

Mid-Century Madness: Free Country Style Mid-Century Cross Stitch Sampler Design Part VIII

If you like this free cross stitch design then please use one of these buttons to share it. You must know SOMEONE who would LOVE it!

Thanks for sharing!

Welcome to Part VIII of the mid-century modern cross stitch sampler series. A new panel of this mid-century modern cross stitch pattern is free to download. Collect them all to stitch the whole design.

This mid-century cross stitch design was so much fun to create and is so flexible. It uses only three colours: Orange (in two tones), Green (in two tones) and a neutral. That means you can substitute the orange and green for two colours that you would prefer! Super easy to substitute.

You can also leave out the motif in the middle of the design and stitch the occasion, names, and dates of your choice. I think this would make a really cool baby or wedding sampler with the details put into the centre square.

While the colours and design are simple, there is A LOT of back stitch on this one. Think of it as an opportunity to practice this essential cross stitching skill.

This is the bottom middle panel design to download.

If you like the Hancock's House of Happy facebook page you will be the first to know when new free cross stitch patterns to download are posted. I also announce them on twitter and pinterest.

Just right click and choose Save As to download the full size cross stitch pattern for free.

If you are one of my Patreon patrons, you can download this entire design RIGHT NOW as a PDF.

Becoming a Patreon patron is super easy and it only costs $2 per month. You can join for as few or as many months as you want. I have at least three exclusive designs planned per month (starting in August) for Patreons and each of those patterns will be retailing for $3-$5 each so you will be saving. Plus you will other goodies like exclusive printables.
