Pride is right around the corner, so it’s time to break out all the rainbow colors and get to stitching. These patterns are great to give as gifts (including wedding gifts) or to have in your house to show your pride or allyship.
We have to start with this Prince-inspired, Queerly Beloved cross stitch pattern from 1000TinyXs on Etsy. I love everything about it and there’s nothing more to say, other than it’s perfect to fit in a 5 by 7 frame if you stitch it on 14 count fabric.
This love rainbow pattern is super cute and would make a great wedding present. It’s a free pattern from Stitching the Night Away and is 60 by 60 stitches.
Speaking of rainbows, love and wedding presents, this Love Wins wedding cross stitch pattern is perfect for your next wedding celebration. It has room for the names of the brides or grooms and their wedding date and is decorated with lovebirds and flowers. The design is from Subversive Cross Stitch.
This set of 20 Pride minis from Scrappy Little Crafts is great for making patches, adding to cards or bookmarks or just about anything else.
Pride flags and cats was not a mashup I thought I needed, but these are adorable. You can get the pattern from Zahra Design Studio on Etsy. These would be great as mini projects too. (I also love there “Here you are” pattern, which would be perfect for an ally to stitch, or to display in a home or office where everyone is welcome.)
This pastel rainbow love script cross stitch pattern from Ugly Duckling House wouldn’t have to be for Pride, but it could be (either with brighter colors or not). The watercolor effect is done with 24 colors, or you could use variegated thread if you’d rather. Note the pattern used to be free but now is available through her membership site.
