Welcome to
Cherry Parker Designs.

From delicate cross stitch to charming felt creations, every pattern begins with a pencil in my hand and an idea in my head. As one of New Zealand's leading cross stitch designers, I've spent decades creating patterns that bring joy to crafters worldwide.

Traditionally Crafted, Personally Proven

What makes my patterns special? Each one is personally drawn, stitched, and tested before it becomes a pattern for you to enjoy. Whether you're creating a native bird in cross stitch or a whimsical felt gnome, you can be confident every pattern works exactly as intended – because I've made it myself first!
