About This Pattern

This free lavender cross stitch pattern is a botanical-style bundle of purple lavender tied with a soft green ribbon. The chart is 82 x 159 stitches, giving the purple flower spikes room to stay recognisable while the ribbon and stems remain stitchable. It works well when you want a floral motif that feels calm, handmade, and a little more grown-up than a simple icon.

Lavender is often associated with rest, remembrance, devotion, and quiet domestic spaces, which makes this chart useful for more than a quick floral decoration. Stitch it for a birthday card, a thank-you note, a small hoop for a bedroom wall, a nursery or guest-room accent, a handmade sachet label, or framed kitchen and cottage-garden decor.

You can open the pattern in the Xstitchify editor before downloading if you want to make it more personal. Try adding a short word, name, date, or initials beside the stems, soften the purples, make the ribbon cream or dusty pink, or crop the design into a smaller lavender sprig for cards and tags.

Stitching Notes

Start near the centre of the lavender bundle, then work outward through the stems and flower heads so the long shape stays balanced on your fabric. The purple areas include small colour changes for botanical texture; stitch one shade at a time if you prefer to keep the chart easy to follow.

Materials

14 count Aida, DMC threads, tapestry needle, embroidery hoop, and scissors.
