This weekend has been full of kids’ sports (a swim meet and a soccer game) and house projects. Now I’m looking forward to our traditional weekly pizza and a movie night and some uninterrupted stitching time. Today’s free pattern would go along really well with the mistletoe pattern I shared yesterday. It would also make a cute addition to a […]
This is one of my favorite patterns of the whole series. I am so pleased with how it turned out and I think it is going to make an adorable addition to our Christmas decor. I stitched the leaves and stems with split stitch, the ribbon with backstitch and the berries with satin stitch. I may need to spread these […]
Today’s free embroidery pattern is a wreath made from two arrows. My six year old son was pretty excited when he saw me working on this. It’s “more boyish”, he said, than the other patterns I usually do. So, there you have it! Boyish embroidery just for you. 🙂 Download the pattern here.
This embroidery pattern is so versatile. It could be used anywhere from the nursery to Christmas decor. The stars stich up quickly, too. The best of both crafty worlds: sweet and fast. 🙂 Happy stitching! Download the pattern here.
Here’s today’s hand embroidery pattern! This needle and spool of thread would make the perfect addition to a gift for the sewist or crafter in your life. Download the pattern here.
Continuing with the 31 Days of Free Embroidery Patterns, today I’ve got these cute Halloween candies for you! Speaking of treats, my 21 month old is a little obsessed with candy right now. He doesn’t have it often, but one time (ONE time!) I bought him a sucker while we were out running errands. He hates being in the […]
Happy SUN-day, friends! My family and I are hunkering down for another beautiful and uplifting day of LDS General Conference this morning. I’ll probably do some stitching while we watch, as well as a lot of toddler-chasing and doodling lots of notes. I look forward to this weekend every six months and always feel so refreshed and renewed and […]
Today’s free embroidery pattern is a simple wreath. I stitched this using split stitch as the wreath base and the leaves are done using a lazy daisy stitch. This would be so cute to hang in your entryway, or even used as an ornament on a Christmas tree. I love the simplicity of this pattern, but it could easily […]
I have a slight obsession with pumpkins. I’m not quite sure what it is–the decorating versatility they provide? the delicious taste? the adorableness of a stack of pumpkins on my front porch and filling every available decorative bowl in my house?–but I just swoon over pumpkins. Naturally I had to include some adorable mini-pumpkins in my 31 Days […]
First up in my 31 Days of Embroidery patterns is this simple and beautiful leaf embroidery pattern. I used split stitch to outline the leaf, backstitch for the veins and did one stem in stem stitch (very fitting!) and one stem with satin stitch. I think this pattern would be just lovely in fall colors. […]
