Looking for more Christmas Embroidery Patterns? Check these out on Etsy

We’ve chosen the best Christmas hand-embroidery patterns for you to attempt this week! We offer something for everyone, whether you’re a novice or a seasoned veteran. Our free Christmas cross-stitch patterns range from simple cross-stitch patterns to more complex floral and animal motifs. With so many styles to choose from, you’re sure to find one that suits your preferences. Our designs are really easy to follow, so even if you’re a beginner, you’ll be able to finish your project quickly. Why not give it a try? You’ll be surprised at how quickly your own embroidered designs may be completed. It’s also a great way to express yourself creatively and unwind after a long day. So bring your needles.

Please keep in mind that all these Christmas designs were available for free at the time of authoring these cross-stitch articles. Many free cross stitch and embroidery designs appear and disappear on the internet, so if you find a beautiful pattern or one of the links to the cross stitch patterns below does not work, please leave a comment below and let us know.

Looking for more curated lists? Check out these Embroidery and Needlework Patterns.  For supplies, we highly recommend purchasing directly from DMC threads.

(1) Christmas cross-stitch from Les grilles de Liselotte. 
(2) Rosace bleue from Cachounette.
(3) Flower wheel from Connie G. Barwick of About.com.
(4) Little Owl Bookmark from Happy Threads.
(5) Joyeux Noel from Val’ en croix.
(6) Halloween bookmark from Happy Threads.
(7) Amitie from Bien le Bonjour aux Brodeuses.
(8) Good Tidings from FreePatterns.com.
(9) Christmas triangle from Le blog de la marmotte brodeuse.

Free embroidery patterns like these are a wonderful way to keep your stitching fresh and enjoyable without committing to a large project. Whether you’re practising new stitches, filling a small hoop, or simply enjoying a few quiet moments with needle and thread, collections like this make it easy to dip in and start creating.

If you notice a link that’s no longer working or come across another free embroidery pattern that would be a great addition to this list, feel free to leave a comment and let us know. Keeping these older pattern roundups current helps fellow stitchers continue to discover inspiring designs long after they were first shared.
