Cats and Cherry Blossom Flowers Embroidery – Project Completed!

*This post contains affiliate links, which means I make a small commission at no extra cost to you. 

I finally finished my Cats and Cherry Blossom Flowers embroidery project, and I am happy with how it turned out!


Back in April, I shared a little progress update on this piece. At that point, most of the cherry blossoms were stitched, and I had just started working on the cats. I remember writing about how tricky it was to get the fur looking natural—it really came down to following the direction of the stitches and blending the colors slowly.


I kept a little stitch “cheat sheet” for myself along the way:

* Long-and-short stitch for shading and fur texture

* Satin stitch for the smooth buds

* Stem stitch to keep the branches looking neat

* Straight stitch and French knots for the flower center




The Finished Piece


The cherry blossoms are probably my favorite part—the pinks and whites came together so softly, and the little buds give it a nice touch of movement. 



I’m not entirely sure I managed to capture the cats’ fur exactly the way I wanted. Getting the direction and blending of the long-and-short stitches just right is something I definitely need more practice with—it can be tricky to balance the texture while keeping it soft and natural-looking. Still, I love the overall effect. The way the two cats are nestled together gives the piece such a tender, affectionate feeling. It almost tells its own little story of comfort and the bond between a mother and her kitten under the blossoms, which makes me smile every time I look at it.



This project reminded me that embroidery really rewards patience. The long-and-short stitches took forever, but they made all the difference in how soft and natural everything looks. Adding in satin and stem stitches gave just the right amount of contrast and detail without losing that softness I was going for.

If you’d like to stitch this project yourself, the embroidery kit is available on Amazon. 



My older daughter is a huge cat lover, so I’ve decided that instead of just keeping this embroidery in the hoop, I’m going to turn it into something special for her. The plan is to carefully add it as a patchwork panel onto a pillow cover. I think it will be such a cozy and personal touch for her room, and I know she’ll absolutely love cuddling up with it. It makes me so happy to imagine this piece becoming part of something she’ll use and enjoy every day, rather than just being tucked away.




What’s Next?

I’m already looking forward to starting another project soon—perhaps something with more animals, a pattern I’ve shared on this blog, or maybe even a completely different style of flowers.

I really enjoyed the mix of techniques in this one, so I’d like to keep experimenting.

Do you also have a project in progress, or maybe one waiting in your “to-stitch” list? I’d love to hear what you’re working on. Please feel free to share your current or upcoming embroidery projects in the comments. It’s always inspiring to see what others are creating with needle and thread!

Happy Stitching!

Free Hollyhocks Embroidery Pattern – With Stitch & Color Guide



I’m so excited to share this free hollyhocks embroidery pattern with you! Hollyhocks are such charming flowers – tall, cheerful, and perfect for adding a cottage-garden feel to your needlework. This pattern is simple enough for beginners but still has plenty of detail for more experienced stitchers to enjoy.




Download link is given below.





Stitches to Use


For this design, I recommend keeping the stitches simple and classic so the beauty of the hollyhocks really shines:


Flowers: Use long and short stitch to fill in each petal. This will create lovely shading and a smooth, natural look.

Leaves: Also work the leaves in long and short stitch, so you can blend different greens for a realistic effect.

Stems: Use stem stitch for the flower stalks and smaller stems. This gives a nice, slightly raised line that works beautifully for plant stems.





Suggested Colors


I’ve chosen a soft and cheerful palette for this project:


Flower Petals: Shades of pink – try a light pink for the outer edges (e.g., DMC 3713 or 818) and a slightly deeper pink for the inner areas (e.g., DMC 603 or 602). You can blend two or three pinks for more depth.

Flower Centers: A soft yellow (e.g., DMC 3078) to give a gentle contrast without overpowering the pink petals.

Leaves: Use medium to deep greens (e.g., DMC 471 for lighter areas and 469 for darker shading).

Stems: A slightly muted green (e.g., DMC 936) works well for the main stalk, with a lighter green for highlights.

Download Link

You can download PDF version of the pattern by clicking the link below:

Download the Hollyhocks Embroidery Pattern



Tips for Stitching

When working long and short stitch, start with the lighter shades from the edge of the petals and gradually blend into a darker color toward the flower center.

Keep your stitches smooth and consistent in direction for a polished finish.

* If you’re new to stem stitch, remember to keep your needle coming out on the same side of the thread for a neat twist.

Instead of filling in with long and short stitches, you can also outline the design using stem stitch or backstitch.

Once finished, this hollyhocks piece would look gorgeous framed in a wooden hoop or sewn onto a tote bag for a sweet handmade touch.


Happy stitching!

Cats and Flowers Embroidery Project Progress

*This post contains affiliate links, which means I make a small commission at no extra cost to you. 


 Here is the update on the cats and flowers embroidery project. 


This is what I have embroidered so far.


I have almost finished embroidering the cherry blossom flowers. Only a few flowers and some leaves are left.






I have started embroidering the cat now, which is a bit tricky. You have to follow the direction of the fur to mimic the fur texture and make it look realistic.

These are the stitches used in this project:

  • Long-and-short stitch for the flowers, leaves, and the cats. 
  • Satin stitch for some buds.
  • Stem stitch for the stem.







I am planning to finish the project this week and start with the next project.


If you’d like to stitch this project yourself, the embroidery kit is available on Amazon

Happy stitching!
