Modern and Traditional Embroidery Dress

This sweet Christmas A to Z cross stitch pattern by Brighter Industries looks just adorable. And if the shop name Brighter Industries is new to you, as any loyal reader of Feeling Stitchy, the name Jo should be very familiar, indeed.

Jo Stafferton was a wonderful contributor to our blog for quite some time, featuring new Etsy patterns and online shops in a weekly Sunday feature. So it is such a pleasure to feature her brand new Etsy shop and pattern on this Wonderful Wednesday!

This lovely free cross stitch pattern was tweeted to us by Modern Folk Embroidery - and I think it couldn't be more fitting as we come together this week in the US to unite with our families and friends and to celebrate Thanksgiving.

Wherever you are or may be, I'm hoping you all can let your light shine. Thank you for this beautiful pattern, Modern Folk Embroidery - be sure to check out their shop for more cross stitch loveliness!

In the past week, with all that has happened, I find myself taking comfort in the qualities I see in those that I respect and admire. I don't have to listen to the voices that speak the loudest - if I can filter through and find the voices that speak the truth in love.

So this Fruit of the Spirit pattern by Clementine Patterns really speaks to me this week.

This Be Brave Pattern in the Plastic Little Covers Etsy shop says everything I want to say today. For our families, friends, country, and our neighbors - be brave.

What a gorgeous little Wreath Pattern this is, courtesy of the Sew Jenaissance Etsy shop. I like that this pattern gives you three different text options, so you can make this pattern a little bit more your own - choose from: "Give Thanks", "Harvest Time", and "Our Harvest Home". There is also a stitch and color guide - and so many sweet details in this pattern!

Today, I couldn't resist featuring this lovely Hand and Heart PDF pattern by Lolli and Grace, who has a wonderful Etsy shop that Amy has featured here before.

There's such a lovely and intricate simplicity to this design - I adore the colors she's chosen, and it would work so well in many different schemes!

I am loving this wonderful Eggplant Sampler pattern in Trellis and Thyme's Etsy shop. I really enjoy the delicate, subtle hues they've chosen for this pattern - beautiful!

How adorable is this Fox and Bear pairing on Etsy by SweaterDoll? The shop also offers a pre-printed fabric design of the two, if you'd like to save yourself a fabric transfer. Sweetly simple and a fun-looking stitch for beginners.
