Faith in Embroidery

A blog friend at Waltzing Matilda drew up some fabulous designs for her “Saints ‘n Stitches.” Simple designs of saints for children or adults to embroider. I chose them for my daughter’s 8th birthday party activity – and it was fun for all. It’s actually quite therapeutic and addicting!

 

Saint Elizabeth of Hungary – as embroidered on a dish towel by Melissa

Saint Anne with Mary stitched by Melissa with apron and bowl for a kitchen dishtowel.

I drew more saints that went with the girl’s names. Here they are FREE for your personal use only.

Please do not sell items made from these patterns.
