Any suggestions for iphone case pattern?

dodobie

Hi all, I am new to cross stitch and I want to start with a silicon iphone case that you can make a pattern using cross stitch.  It is only 23 x 45, is there any small pattern you could recommend?  Thanks!

Pacman! easy and cute :D But really, what kind of designs do you like?

Thanks for the reply!  I am a starter, so simple ones would be good.  I usually like funny designs.  Something humorous.  I was hoping to find a good collection of small cross stitch patterns somewhere.

It didnt come with any pattern? The i-phone cases I bought came with different patterns in them. I ended up buying two different to get 4 different patterns in all.

Also I would think most of the "smalls" patterns for scissor fobs, needlebooks or small pincushions pay work.

A quick search in google comes for simple/easy cross stitch patterns comes up with quite a few gridded pictures...  There are a lot of shapes and animals, and some cartoon characters... I think something cute like an adorable owl XD   You can even look up cross stitch phone case patterns/designs to get some ideas... Luckily, its so simple for a phone case, you dont need  a pattern most of the time... you can just look at the phone case and make out the design (transfer it onto grid paper for ease of use)

There are some patterns came with the kit but I dont like them very much.

You advice however, is great!  I started searching bookmark patterns and found quite a few that I would like to make!  Now i have to decide on one. Hmmmm......

Thank you very much!

I did that but wanting to see more.  I just added bookmark pattern to my search and found a few interesting ones.  Since I am new, I feel more comfortable following a pattern.  Maybe after finishing a few projects I will be more comfortable free-stitching.

Thanks!

I have just done one myself, I got a book with little charts in, but none of them took my fancy. I wanted something that no one else has.. So I stitched my baby that I lost due to having an ectopic pregnancy.
It has simple and cute wings that I stitched in both pink and blue for the pregnancy and infant loss colours, and added their name in the middle. Been contemplating adding their date underneath, but I am undecided still.. x
