Cross Stitch Patterns

Some days call for a quick, cozy project. Other days, you want to settle in with something more intricate. Fat Quarter Shop cross stitch patterns span a wide range of themes, color palettes, and difficulty levels, making it easy to find exactly what you're in the mood to stitch. From seasonal favorites and holiday designs to timeless florals, typography, and whimsical characters, there's always something new to discover.

Pair your pattern with our selection of cross stitch floss, cloth, and notions, or make things extra easy with a coordinating kit. However you like to stitch, we're here to help you enjoy every step of the process.

If you're new to counted cross stitch patterns, don't worry — they're much easier to follow than they look. Each pattern uses a gridded chart that shows exactly where each stitch goes. Symbols indicate colors, backstitching, and special details like French knots, while the legend tells you which floss to use for each symbol. Once you get the hang of reading the chart, stitching becomes wonderfully relaxing and intuitive.

If you'd rather skip gathering supplies, cross stitch kits are a great option. They include the pattern, fabric, and floss you need so you can start stitching right away.

Many experienced stitchers love customizing their cross stitch patterns by changing colors, adjusting sizes, or even combining multiple designs into one piece. Whether you're following a chart exactly or putting your own spin on it, Fat Quarter Shop has everything needed to support your creativity from start to finish.
