I am not embarrassed to say that I am not a winter person. I don’t like the cold or the short days. Each year when Spring rolls around I want to shout “it’s about time” from the rooftops! I think Amy from Ameroonie Designs read my mind when she designed the Spring Hand Embroidery pattern for today’s project. It’s full of bright colors and clever designs and just screams Spring!
There’s just nothing like sitting in the sunshine, with a bit of embroidery in hand, enjoying the first warm days of spring. Pair that with a quick and satisfying stitching project, and you have an afternoon or two made in heaven! This free Welcome Spring embroidery pattern can be finished in lots of different ways, but no matter how you stitch it, it’s going to be darling!
Welcome Spring Embroidery Hoop Art:
Supplies for hand embroidery:
7″ embroidery hoop
Welcome Spring embroidery pattern found here
Embroidery Floss
Fabric- about a 10″ square. I am using blossoms basics in white on white
Needle
Optional Supplies:
You can also use felt scraps for flowers and leaves (I recommend using freezer paper to trace and cut out the shapes).
A large square of white felt to back your fabric if you are using a light fabric to stitch, as I am here.
A lightbox is also helpful.

This is really nice. It’s been a long time since i’ve actually done cross stitch or handwork such as this, but I am finding myself SLOWLY getting back into hand stitching. I love the clothespin/thread holder. Since i still hang clothes on a clothes line as my mother still does (I’m 52) –i have plenty of clothespins. and would try this with floss. Thanks!!
