    Love Heart Cross Stitch Pattern - Free Printable

    Jan 26, 2016 · 11 Comments

    Simple Heart Cross Stitch Pattern is an easy weekend project that can be used for Valentine's Day, weddings and much more.

    I have been spending so much time cooking and blogging, that I haven't done much crafting the past few months. But that all changed when I decided to create a Valentine's wreath without spending any money.

    Which eventually led to my creation of a free cross stitch pattern for you.

    Love Heart Cross Stitch Pattern - free printable cross stitch pattern of hearts spelling the word LOVE.

    Valentine's Day Wreath

    First up is the wreath. The red and white wreath used to be a Christmas one, but honestly I never loved it. I am going to put those snowman parts on something else later in the year.

    I rummaged through my craft closet and found some cream and pink ribbons and mesh.

    I made some rose ribbons, but I won't post the instructions for those because I am not sure I would make it that way again. Try these instructions from Homemade Gifts Made Easy instead.

    Even with the roses and mesh I still felt it was missing something, so I decided to create this simple cross stitch pattern.

    Tea Staining Cross Stitch Fabric

    All I had in the house was white cloth, but it didn't fit in with the "Antique Rose" look I was going for. So, I brewed some strong tea and soaked the white cloth for a few minutes, then rinsed it and let it dry.

    Much better!

    The Love Heart Pattern only took a few hours to stitch up once the fabric was dry.

    I finished it by stretching it and gluing it to a piece of cardboard. A few squirts of the glue gun later and I had a free to me Valentine's Day decoration.

    You can download the pattern here.

    I think the pattern would make a lovely card or bookmark as well. What would you make with it?

        I haven't touched my cross stitch box since my Little Monster was born and I added the date to the sampler I made for his room. I missed it.
