firefox free cross stitch patternIf you’re an uber internet geek like me than you’re sure to enjoy this great freebie from Yiotas Xstitch. I was so thrilled when she posted this finished pic of the pattern on our forums.

She designed and stitched it as a gift for her husband, and she was kind enough to post the pattern as a freebie on her website as well.

You can download the pattern at Yiotas Xstitch in the freebie section. I’ve just saved a copy myself …. now if my printer worked I could actually print it out and put it in my file box, but no my printer seems to have died on me.

Happy Stitching!

butterfly arbor moonlight inspirationsThis week’s pattern of the week is full of fluttery fun! Butterfly Arbor by Moonlight Inspirations captures the whimsy of a butterflies dancing in your garden! Okay, so I’ve got a soft spot for butterfly pieces, I don’t know what it is about them they are just fun and pretty and colorful. Butterflies are cool no matter what! I’m actually model stitching a piece for Moonlight Inspirations right now too, so I guess I’ve got a double soft spot this week! I’m running long over due on getting it back to her too (hanging my head in shame,) she did give me permission to share pics with you though, so maybe later this week I’ll add some sneak peek pictures for you to check out. I think you’ll enjoy their designs and there’s even a few cute little free cross stitch patterns to try out the Moonlight style!

Cross Wing Hummingbird Collector Series 2007 black-chinned hummingbirdOur chart of the week pick for this week is by Crossed Wing. The boys picked up a bit of a bird watching hobby from my grandfather, and hummingbirds are without a doubt their favorite to watch. And with good reason too, they are fascinating little birds to see in flight. This black-chinned hummingbird is the ninth design in the Crossed Wing Hummingbird Collector series. Of course that’s not all Cross Wing has to offer! If you’re looking to try a little bit of the Cross Wing design style they offer some great free cross stitch patterns to try out as well. Christmas Cardinal, Anna’s Hummingbird, and Great Grey Owl are all awesome freebies, and if you’re a bird lover you’ll definitely enjoy stitching them.

mayan mystery by cross eyed katThis week I chose this design by Cross Eyed Kat as the chart of the week. It’s a newer release and a little bit different. Stop into the Gallery and you’ll see they offer a few other Terrestrial Places, as well as science and nature patterns mixed in with some dragons and cats! If you’re looking to sample the Cross Eyed Kat style check out the free cross stitch patterns on their website as well. I personally like the Jolly Roger Cat freebie! Ask you local needlework shop or your favorite online needlework shop for Cross Eyed Kat designs.  Happy stitches everybody!

This is certainly not a new free pattern, but a revisit to an old favorite standby freebie from the Queen of Blended Threads herself, Teresa Wentzler.

We are talking about the Beginner Whitework Ornament that TW offers in her Complimentary Chart section.  This is truly a great learning piece, and a beautiful ornament!  What always amazes me about this particular piece is how different it can look with just a simple change of colorway, or even just a different color fabric.  >> Click Here << to go to the pattern page on TW's site in a new window.

Pictured at left is one of my own TW Ornaments (I've stitched it four times now, and will probably stitch it several more in the future as it makes a great gift!)
