This folk art bee is all bold, cheerful stitching - no dusty antique vibe here. A plump bee sits center, its body banded in pumpkin orange, canary yellow, and deep navy, sprinkled with diamonds, dots, and chevrons. Those wide wings are filled with orange and yellow blooms on forest-green stems.
The cross-stitch PDF keeps things wonderfully simple: just seven colors, full crosses only, and not a single backstitch. It’s big enough to feel like a real accomplishment but easy enough to work on while you binge your favorite show.

What you get
Your instant download includes:
- full-color symbol chart with the notes and color checklist pages to track your progress as you go
- printer-friendly black & white symbol chart
- DMC floss color list
- realistic stitched preview
- beginner's guide
- editable OXS file compatible with Pattern Keeper, MacStitch and WinStitch. Nothing is shipped, just download, print, and start stitching today.
- RECOMMENDED FABRIC: white Aida. The wings are filled with DMC 3770 Tawny Very Light, a very pale peach
- on cream, ivory or ecru the fill blends into the cloth and the wings lose their shape. White keeps every petal readable. Dark fabric will not work either: the navy outline and body banding disappear against it.
How to download
Nothing ships. After Etsy confirms payment, sign in at Etsy.com in a mobile or desktop browser, open Your account, choose Purchases, then choose Download Files beside this order. Etsy’s app does not show the download action.
Personal use
This pattern is for personal use. You can stitch it for yourself and stitch it as a gift. Please do not resell, share, copy or redistribute the files, sell the chart as your own, or use it for mass production. The design and the chart stay the property of Stitch Jam Studio.
Good to know
You are buying a PDF chart, not a finished piece and not a kit. No fabric, floss or hoop is included. Colors on a screen can look different from real DMC floss. The preview shows how the finished piece could look. Your result depends on fabric count and floss. Files are in English. You need a PDF reader to open the charts. Free ones work fine.
Returns
Because this is an instant download, all sales are final. No refunds, returns or exchanges once the files are available. If a file will not open, the download stops halfway, or you got the wrong item, message me and I will fix it.
- Print it. Hoop it. Stitch it loud.
