free embroidery pattern
This time I want to share with all my blog visitors and readers this embroidery pattern. I made this drawing for my Illustration Blog and I thought that this same drawing will make a beautiful embroidery design.
You can use the design for a pillow, a quilt, a dress or whatever comes to your mind. I embroidered this one for the center of a pillow. I will add a border with different fabrics (patchwork) that match the embroidery thread colors.
Here is a tutorial created by Floresita about how to use a transfer pencil. You are going to need Floresita's tutorial in order to trace this free pattern onto your fabric. LINK
Make sure to visit Floresita's blog because she has wonderful ideas, patterns and nice crafty and embroidery articles (she runs a couple more blogs too).
I hope you enjoy this pattern and if you have any questions, just leave a comment and I will answer right here.
Click the picture to get the pattern
The pattern is a jpeg file. If you want to make it smaller or bigger, you can reduce or enlarge it on a photocopy machine OR use a picture program like photoshop to resize it.
Another way to enlarge or reduce the pattern is to open your print preview option from your browser window, there you will have a little window on the top that says "shrink to fit" click on the arrow next to it and you will have a series of percentages and even a custom size option. Select the desired percentage and you will be able to see the desired size of your pattern.
