Last year, I introduced a project called Autumn Fire, and the response was terrific! While the original design featured those cozy, warm autumn hues that so many of you loved, I’ve been excited to expand the collection with some fresh new possibilities.
Today, I’m thrilled to share the first of two additional palettes – Pop of Spring Colours. This vibrant variation takes the same beloved design structure but transforms it entirely with a bright summer palette that practically radiates energy and warmth.
Before we explore what makes this palette so captivating, let me share what drew me to these particular colour choices. The Pop of Spring Colours palette celebrates the fresh hues that remind me of sunny meadows and blooming gardens. The four vibrant colour combinations I’ve selected work together beautifully to create a design that feels both lively and harmonious.
The balance of these bright tones can dramatically shift the entire mood of your finished piece compared to the original autumn version, where Autumn Fire embodied cozy evenings and crackling fires. Pop of Spring Colours brings to mind fresh morning air and the first warm days when you can throw open the windows. It’s the same intricate stitch work, but with a completely different visual impact and feel.
I found myself drawn to this brighter palette because it offers such versatility in how you can display your finished work. This version feels perfect for spring and summer décor, but also brings a delightful burst of colour during those dreary winter months when you need a reminder that brighter days are coming.
Stitched on 18-count mono canvas, this little beauty maintains the same compact 2 ½-inch diameter that made the original so appealing – perfect for a quick and satisfying project that you can complete in an afternoon or over the weekend. The size makes it ideal for gift-giving, and you can easily customize the finished size by adding decorative borders of your choice.
What is included with the Pop of Spring Colours Kit
The Pop of Spring Colours kit comes complete with the same downloadable PDF pattern that made Autumn Fire so popular, delivered straight to your inbox upon purchase. Along with the pattern, you’ll receive four carefully selected size five perle cotton threads in those vibrant colour combinations that capture this fresh, summery spirit.
We’ve finished this as an ornament, making it perfect for gift-giving or adding a splash of colour to your own space. The compact design and cheerful palette make this an ideal project for anyone new to counted canvas needlepoint – it’s approachable enough for beginners while still offering those satisfying stitch details that more experienced stitchers appreciate.
If you choose to add additional borders to increase the size, the Pop of Spring Colours palette adapts beautifully to larger formats. The vibrant colours have enough depth and variation to carry a bigger design without losing their impact.
Grab your needles and join me in celebrating the brightness and energy of this delightful new palette. Let’s stitch something beautiful together!
