Delicate botanical portraits of the birth flowers for January to May — a thoughtful birthday gift that lasts.

5 patterns · Instant PDF download · Bundle saves 37%

A birth flower cross stitch is one of my favorite gifts to make, because it feels so personal without needing a name on it. Volume 1 covers January to May: snowdrop and carnation, violet, daffodil, daisy and sweet pea, and lily of the valley. Each one is a little posy tied with a bow, delicate and soft, the kind of piece that looks lovely in a small frame on a bedside table.

Floral cross stitch patterns for birthdays

All five designs share the same size, 50 x 80 stitches, so they hang together beautifully as a set. That's about 3.6 x 5.7 inches on 14-count aida. They use 7 to 9 DMC colors each and are marked intermediate, mostly for the fine stems and petal shading rather than tricky techniques.

These floral cross stitch patterns make sweet birthday, Mother's Day or new-baby gifts. Stitch one for each person in the family, or the whole volume for a little botanical row.

Each pattern includes a full-color chart, a black & white chart, a large print chart, a Pattern Keeper PDF and a DMC floss key. Need help choosing fabric? The fabric size calculator tells you exactly how much to cut.

Good to know

Are these patterns a physical kit?

No, these are digital PDF patterns. You download them instantly after checkout. Fabric, thread and hoop are not included, and each pattern lists exactly which DMC colors you need.

Are they suitable for beginners?

Every pattern has an honest difficulty label. Beginner patterns use a small palette, full cross stitches only and very little confetti, so they are lovely first projects.

Can I use Pattern Keeper?

Yes. Every pattern includes a Pattern Keeper friendly PDF along with the full-color and black & white charts.
