Skies and Seas

Today I’d like to share one more summer cross-stitch pattern - Skies and Seas. Stitched on sky blue fabric, it is very easy to realize. Besides, I’ve used full cross-stitches only. The pattern is 100% free and you can download it following the links at the end of the post.

So, what are you waiting for? This small Skies and Seas pattern, realized by your own, will become a nice remembrance of hot summer during cold winter days.

Sea-patterns: Leaping Dolphin

With this pattern of a Dolphin that jumps out of the water I’m going to say my farewell to summer. So, if you prefer to dedicate the last summer days to cross-stitching, the Leaping Dolphin pattern is downloadable for free. The links, as always, are at the end of the post.

Sea-patterns: Seahorse

As I’ve promised in my recent post “Sea-patterns: White Shark” for today I prepared a Seahorse pattern with seaweeds. Hope, that you, my dear cross-stitches, will like it.

By the way, I've used emerald green to back-stitch a body of the seahorse while his eyes and seaweeds are back-stitched with black.

Sea-patterns: White Shark

“Thank you very much for cute sea-patterns. My kids adore them and I’ve got an idea to make a blanket with sea-animals. But I’d like to have the patterns of a shark and a seahorse, maybe some bubbles and seaweeds…” This’s an excerpt from the letter I received from Vivian. As she asked, I’ve added some bubbles, and seaweeds are following soon with a seahorse pattern.

Sea-patterns: Starfish

Who’s this beautiful creature? A fish? – No, it’s an animal, though is called a Starfish and lives in the sea. Well, this is not a biology lesson and this blog is dedicated to quite different things, that’s why I invite everybody to cross-stitch the pattern I’ve prepared and don’t puzzle over the mysteries of Mother Nature )))

Sea-patterns: Turtle

As promised, for today I’ve prepared another easy-to-do sea-pattern. So, meet this cute Turtle that will surely become a nice decoration for your kid’s closes or towels.

I’ve used here three colors for back-stitch lines. You can use only one (DMC 310 black), but I decided to underline the body of the turtle with ultra-very dark emerald green (DMC 3818) and the shell with very dark beige brown (DMC 838). Pay attention that the latter is used for back-stitches only.

Sea-patterns: Crab

The sun and the sea... A heat wave and a fresh breeze... Taste of salt on the lips and alluring coolness of the seawater… Well, there’re so many pleasant things to do… And surely, who will care about cross-stitching in such a paradise? – Nobody, but a passionate cross-stitcher, like my granny, who used to bring her needlework casket everywhere, even to the beach.
