There’s something about the calendar turning to April that makes spring feel ‘real’. We know we’ve survived yet another winter and we’re ready to refresh and renew. For me, this means adding spring-like décor around the house and freshening up my embroidery designs with all the signs of spring.

You may have noticed that our collection of Embroider Buddy^® Home pillows is growing in colour options. Now is the perfect time to swap out the darker fall and winter colours in favour of lighter shades for spring, such as pink, oatmeal, grey or blue, and get creative with seasonal embroidery.

Spring-themed embroidery patterns

We scoured Etsy for some spring-themed embroidery patterns that would work beautifully on our pillows. From modern to traditional, there are many options to freshen up for spring.

Nothing says spring like a butterfly. This one by September House is simply gorgeous.

This modern, yet classic take on tulips is a real stand out from I Heart Stitch Art.

Greet your guests with a sunny welcome with this pattern from Sew Jenaissance.

This pattern from So Cute Appliques reminds us that sometimes it’s okay to dance in the spring rain.

We hope these designs inspire your spring embroidery projects! What symbolizes the start of spring for you?
