Happy Easter everyone! I know it's a bit too late for even the speediest of stitchers to stitch anything for Easter now, but here's some suggestions to bookmark for next year! First up is Bunny in a hoop by Down Grapevine Lane, a free pattern that comes with a great tutorial. I love the french knots, they remind me of hama beads!
Next up is this free pattern by LiliPopo, isn't she sweet? Here is in an in progress shot of me stitching the pattern through paper onto felt.
And finally and not just for Easter, how about Wendi Gratz's Spring Bird? You can download the free pattern by following the link here.
Last October, artist and illustrator Catherine Young from Bumpkin launched her first embroidery pattern, Bunny and her teacups. I've seen this pattern pop up in a few places since Christmas and I couldn't resist showing it here. Fingers crossed for more Bumpkin embroidery patterns!
