These adorable vegetable cross stitch motifs are ideal for creating fun greetings cards, great for all occasions. Whether you give them as a thank you, for a birthday or to say congratulations, one thing is for sure, your green-fingered friends will love them!
The cute vegetable cross stitch is not only for greetings cards, but they could be mounted in a frame and hung up as a set in the kitchen or made into gift tags to add a personal touch to your gifts. The stitching possibilities are endless! Each vegetable cross stitch is suitable for beginners and would be a great way to practice cross stitch with various colours, you'll even take on some back stitch (which we know can be a challenge) so check out our handy guide on how to backstitch.
In this set you will find three beautiful designs to choose from, you have the vegetable basket with the text 'with love', the watering can with the text 'keep growing', and finally a cute little pod of peas with the text 'peas'. The vegetable cross stitch motifs are designed by Lesley Teare as part of a library of 41 different vegetable cross stitches, if you want the whole set they can be found in The World of Cross Stitching, issue 242.
