Stitching the Sky — The Wilde Bloem Cornflower

There’s a particular shade of blue that can stop you in your tracks - the kind that belongs only to wild cornflowers dancing at the edge of summer fields. Their delicate petals, kissed with morning dew, are a reminder of both resilience and grace. The Wilde Bloem Cornflower Cross Stitch captures that fleeting beauty in a geometric bloom, translating nature’s palette into threads and texture.


The design blooms from a golden heart -  the warm glow of the sun - framed by the layered blues of open skies, and grounded by the soft green leaves that hold the flower steady against the wind. On a deep black cloth, every stitch sings, the colors glowing like wildflowers in the evening light.

This pattern is part of the Wilde Bloem Collection, inspired by the untamed beauty of meadow blooms and the stories they hold. Whether you are an experienced stitcher or threading a needle for the first time, this kit offers everything you need to bring your own Cornflower to life.

Available as:

  • Full Kit  -  Includes black aida cloth, embroidery floss, needle, pattern, and frame.

  • Pattern Only - PDF download or full-color printed pattern.

Bring a piece of the meadow into your home, one stitch at a time.

New Cross Stitch Kit! Say Hello to the Forget Me Not

We’re so excited to share the newest bloom in our Wilde Bloem Collection—the Forget Me Not Cross Stitch Kit and Pattern. Inspired by the delicate blue flower and the symbolism it carries, this design is a heartfelt tribute to remembrance, enduring love, and loyalty.



Each stitch in this charming pattern echoes the quiet strength of the tiny Myosotis bloom, often found growing wild in fields and along paths—small, yet impossible to forget. The motif is drawn directly from our Wilde Bloem Barn Quilt and translated into a beautiful cross stitch that feels both traditional and fresh. With its rich blues, golden centers, and layered greens, the palette pops brilliantly against the black background, creating a piece that is both bold and tender.

Our Wilde Bloem Forget Me Not Cross Stitch Kit includes everything you need to bring this design to life—high-quality aida cloth, embroidery floss, needle, scissors, hoop, and a printed full-color pattern. It’s also available as a PDF pattern download if you prefer to use your own supplies.

Whether you’re stitching this piece in honor of someone you love or simply as a way to slow down and savor the art of handwork, this design is meant to be a keepsake. Frame it, gift it, or hang it alongside your other barn quilt-inspired stitches—it’s a little bloom with a big message.

Available now in our shop. We hope it brings beauty and meaning to your hands and home.

A Weed Is A Flower

A weed is just a flower in disguise if seen through loving eyes.  I have loved this thought for so many years.  It was hand-written into the cover of an old book gifted to me by my husband, and of course it found it's way into one of my most loved embroidery samplers.  


This saying is loved for the reminder that all things can be seen as beautiful and can hold value when seen with love.   In my drawings, paintings and natural dye processes I have found the most deep and beautiful colors in what some would call weeds.  All creations on earth were created by a creator whose nature is love.  

In our shop we have kits and frames for this embroidery sampler.  It is stitched on hand dyed fabric, simple black and includes lace flowers, wood buttons and ribbon leaves.  Also included in the kit are hoops, needle, snips, marking pen, and batting.  The frame for this piece is also available in our frame collection.  


All of the basic stitches in this piece are added to our Tweetle Dee YouTube Channel.  I am often asked how long it takes to stitch a piece, so I track it for you.  This piece took two evenings to stitch and just a few minutes to frame.   The finished size fits in a 11" x 16" frame as well.  

We hope you feel inspired to embroider along with us.  We all need a reminder to see each other and all of nature through the eyes of love.

Indian Paint Brush Wilde Bloem Embroidery

Of all the flowers that grow in the wild, the Indian Paintbrush makes my heart jump every time I'm blessed to find one.  This wild flower grows in the west among  dry, rocky soil and is found in the wild fields in the east, both places I have called home in my life.  It symbolizes the Wayfinder or following your own path, which is my "word" and has a deep connection to my soul.  


Wild Bloem Indian Paintbrush Embroidery 

This month we painted the Indian Paintbrush Barn Quilt as part of the Wild Bloem Collection, our 2023 Block of the Month.  I am more in love with this collection of wildflowers everyday as I stitch and paint these 9 wildflowers and of course the Wild Bloem Bee.  


There is something so vintage about simple embroidery done on black and our Wild Bloem embroidery florals are stunning stitched alone or in the Wild Bloem Hoop.  This week we released the WB Indian Paintbrush Embroidery Kit so that you can stitch along with me on Instagram @tweetledeedesignco or our Tweetle Dee YouTube Channel.


Wild Bloem Indian Paintbrush Embroidery Kit

The kit includes the Indian Paintbrush Embroidery Pattern, fabric, hoop, thread, needle, and scissors to make your own Wayfinder.  The frames are also sold in the shop.  We hope you join us this year as we paint, quilt and embroider the Wilde Bloem Collection.  It was designed from the heart and I know you will feel the love with each of these beautiful florals.

Holly Wreath Embroidery Kit


It's a very merry week here at Tweetle Dee.  It's the week of Christmas and amid the hustle to wrap, cook, and be present, we have found that setting aside a few moments to hand embroider has brought a slow calm to the evenings together.  Any of you have attended our embroidery workshops know that my husband and sons all hand embroider along with me.  

This hand winter piece was hand drawn onto the fabric while we were in Indianapolis teaching a two day set of embroidery classes and we all took turns stitching it as we traveled back home, and taught in SLC and AZ.  I love when one piece has the work of many hands.   The memories make it even more beautiful.


We now have the Holly Wreath Embroidery Hoop available in our shop as a kit that includes everything you need to make this gorgeous winter wreath.  We also have full color patterns available in paper print and as a downloadable PDF pattern.  

If you are new to hand embroidery, all of our embroidery patterns have basic stitches with a twist that give extra dimension and texture to an ordinary stitch.  On our Tweetle Dee YouTube Channel you can find three minute videos for each stitch as well as videos on beginning and finishing a hoop-art embroidery piece.  

We hope you each have a wonderful holiday season, and find something that you can create with your hands while you celebrate together and hope for a happy new year.  xo

Belle Prairie Botanicals


Our love of flowers runs deep as the roots here at Tweetle Dee and one of our favorite collections in the Belle Prairie Botanicals.  They were inspired by the Friendship Garden in Belle Prairie, Nebraska.  This garden was grown by the women who helped settle the prairies.  It was a grown as a way to give flowers to each other in the absence of florist shops.


Rue Anemone 


Wild Clover



Black Eyed Susan



Forget Me Not


Queen Anne's Lace



Wild Lavender

We are excited to announce that the collection is growing with two new botanicals coming in September and even more exciting, the collection is now available as a PDF download pattern.  We still have many kits available, but now you can order the patterns straight to your email inbox!  

All of our patterns and kits are 25% off through the end of August with code Fall25.  We hope these Belle Prairie Botanicals inspire you to start stitching again.  I'm so excited for the release of our two new florals, so keep an eye out for their release.  Have a wonderful last few days of August!
