Four and Twenty Cross Stitch Pattern by A Gardener’s Needle.
Four and Twenty Cross Stitch Pattern by A Gardener’s Needle
Inspired by the classic nursery rhyme “Sing a Song of Sixpence,” Four and Twenty is a charming, old-fashioned sampler that blends whimsy, folklore, and warm country stitching. To the left, a head of wheat, while blackbirds — the “four and twenty” — are lined up in neat rows.
Across the sampler, you’ll find A Gardener’s Needle’s signature details: tidy rows of motifs, blooming florals, soft autumnal shades, and a border that feels both vintage and timeless. The heirloom-style symmetry and gentle storytelling make this a lovely piece for stitchers who appreciate history, nostalgia, and rustic Americana charm.
📌 Lovey Notes:
• A perfect companion to Ducks in the Orchard and other village-style samplers.
• Works beautifully on warm, lightly mottled neutrals.
• A sweet nod to childhood rhymes with a refined, grown-up stitching aesthetic.
