Free Vintage Teacup Cross-Stitch Pattern with DMC Codes

Stitch a vintage teacup and saucer with this free printable cross-stitch pattern. The chart includes DMC floss colors, fabric sizing, and an editable preview before PDF export.

Keeping the porcelain delicate

Teacup patterns can become heavy if every shadow is stitched too dark. Let the pale DMC shades do most of the cup body, then use the deeper colors sparingly along the saucer curve and cup interior.
