I Came, I Shopped, I’m Stitching Happy! — Hand Embroidery Pattern

For the stitcher who knows that a little shopping for craft supplies can make any day better! I Came, I Shopped, I’m Stitching Happy! is a playful Thimbles & Tales embroidery pattern filled with personality, flowers, and plenty of stitching-room humor.

This sweet design features an adorable wide-eyed little bird dressed for a shopping day in her oversized sunhat and big blue bow. Beside her sits a charming shopping bag filled with flowers and a very important shopping list—because every stitcher knows there is always one more thing we need!

The design is created in the cozy Thimbles & Tales style with simple outline embroidery and minimal fill, making it approachable for newer stitchers while still offering plenty of delightful details for experienced embroiderers. Soft blues, warm neutrals, cheerful daisies, greenery, and little red hearts give it a fresh cottage feel.
