I know cross stitchers never really need an excuse to find new patterns, but IF they did, than the beautiful changes of seasons would be the perfect one! With fall right on the horizon, pumpkin spice lattes are showing up everywhere and I’m feeling really excited about sweater and get-to-skip-shaving-my-legs season!
So what better way to celebrate than gathering up 15 beautiful fall inspired cross stitch pieces. None of these are the traditional farmhouse scene with pumpkins and leaves, but are more modern takes on the Autumn season. Grab your embroidery hoop and some Aida and get started on one of them right now!

Just looking at all those color changes makes me a little queasy, but there is no doubt the finished product is gorgeous.

There is something to be said for the simplicity of this piece, yet it gives off those fall vibes perfectly!

Fall Forest
This is very similar to the original Satsuma Street work that I am guessing inspired it. But I just love the color way on this version.

If you wouldn’t want to tackle a whole forest you could also just stitch a single tree:
Blackwork Leaves
There is no pattern available for this piece but the idea is simple. A few leaf silhouettes filled in with colorful blackwork. I love it!

You don’t normally consider baby blue as a fall color, but in this piece it works perfectly.

If you like filling in large blocks of color, you’ll be in hog heaven with this piece. The entire surface is stitched.
Lacey Maple Leaf
I like that this piece gives you the feel of backstitching, but they are all full cross stitches. It is amazing how delicate it can still look.

Geometric Squirrel
If you feel a little “nuts” during the crazy fall season, then maybe this squirrel is your spirit animal.

Fall SamplerEven if you didn’t stitch this full piece as is, any of the individual motifs would be great as mini-stitches.
Autumn Leaf Veins
This piece fascinates me. It is actually quite large and I am sure the chart is pretty tricky, but what a result!
Of course it wouldn’t be a snarky crafter roundup with a few sarcastic and inappropriate pieces:
