Glad midsommar - free summer wreath pattern

Today in Sweden we celebrate midsommar, that is Midsummer. It is common that girls wear a wreath made of wild flowers.

To honour this tradition, I created a summer wreath pattern. Enjoy, and happy Midsummer to all.

Peacocks and a basket of flowers - Swedish pattern

Happy midsummer! Trevlig midsommar!


We had a fantastic midsummer celebration today. Love this Swedish custom.
So that all my readers can also celebrate with us, I have created a little pattern with old Swedish motifs: peacocks and a basket of flowers.

I am off to Hungary tomorrow, so if you don't see me for a while, that's the reason. But perhaps I can check in once in a while. Have a lovely summer, everyone.

Midsommar cross stitch pattern

The biggest feast in Sweden is coming this weekend. Midsommar (Midsummer Night) is a beautiful celebration, I was so lucky to be here last year, too. Actually, this means that I have been here for a year! If we are not counting the week I spent in Budapest after learning that I got the job and had to run home to pack.
I have to say I haven't regretted moving to Sweden for one moment! Love being here.

To celebrate, I made a small pattern with midsommarblomma (Geranium sylvaticum). I dedicate it to Stephen. :)






Hope you like it.
