Introduction
This free cross stitch pattern is very special because it celebrates an important birthday: Una Buena Pieza turns 3!
I started this adventure with an Etsy shop and a few patterns I had been keeping to myself for a long time—too shy to share them. Three years later, Una Buena Pieza has grown alongside me and turned into a small business that has reached over 50 countries. It has accompanied me on a journey full of lessons, emotions, and stitches.
To celebrate this milestone, I’ve designed a very detailed birthday cake, full of color, flowers, ghosts… all the little things that make this project unique.
Materials Needed
To complete this cross stitch project, you’ll need:
- A piece of 14 ct. Aida fabric (I used black)
- DMC Mouliné threads in the following colors: ECRU, 16, 19, 208, 211, 564, 600, 604, 702, 740, 747, 3812, 3799
- Size 24 blunt tip needle
- Embroidery hoop (optional)
Free Cross Stitch Pattern
In the design, you’ll find a candle with the number 3, but I’ve included candles from 0 to 9 so you can customize it for any occasion. It’s perfect for gifting on birthdays or celebrating your own milestones.
Ideas to Personalize the Cross Stitch Pattern
Here are some ideas to make it your own:- Change the colors to match the recipient’s favorite palette
- Stitch it on linen for a more delicate finish
- Add a name or date below the cake
- Mount it on a greeting card or frame it as a keepsake
