Creations - Hand Stitchery: Embroidery and Redwork

We carry a wide range of needlework projects in our store - from folk art embroidery to redwork to rughooking. On this page we feature a few of our simple hand embroidery designs as well as a couple of quilt patterns that showcase embroidery designs. We've opted to put all of our wool oriented projects together on the new Wool Stuff page, so be sure to visit there if you are interested in rughooking.

Maisie stitched up a sample of the center block for us, which is shown below. The other 6 images include whimsical halloween pails and lanterns as well as the Halloween banner at the top. It is hard to tell from the picture, but the quilt has black rick-rack around the inner border and black ball fringe at the outside edge.

Vintage Embroidery Pattern Books by Design Originals
If you love the look of vintage hand embroidery, you'll love these vintage embroidery design books from Design Originals. Each book shows a variety of vintage hand embroidered and hand colored textiles and shows you how to turn these classic designs into quilts, pillows, towels and more. Each book is $19.99 and is full of images ready to trace, color with crayons and stitch. (And you thought that coloring quilts with crayons was a new concept! These books show that the technique was actually in use back in the 1920's and 1930's.) But, we think the technique is definitely worth bringing back.
