Free! Halloween Embroidery Designs

So, as I was putting the finishing touches on the Wee Wonderful Stitchettes pictured in the previous post, I got it into my head that it would be fun to stitch up something for one of the upcoming holidays…Halloween perhaps. I started sketching, and ended up with these:

Hillary Lang’s influence is undeniable, which is probably why I think they’re so darn cute. I can hardly wait to get started on them. I think they’d make wonderful panels for wall hangings or decorations for goodie bags.

You’re welcome to stitch them too, and if you do, I’d really love to see your work!

N.B. Please do not sell items made using my designs. Thank you.

You are a very talented designer – these are adorable!! I’ll definitely keep an eye on your blog for future designs! Also, your Stitchettes turned out so cute. My vote is that you frame them and hang them on the wall as an adorable trio. I have a Stitchette pattern that has been collecting dust, but I think you’ve inspired me to put the needle and thread to work!

Gorgeous Amy! I bet you get loads of takers. My daughter’s birthday is on Halloween, I wish it was a bigger deal here in the UK, but sadly it’s used as an excuse for teenagers to get up to no good!

Very cute! Over the holiday weekend I discovered embroidery after so many years of having my hoops and floss thrown in the bottom of my closet. : ) I love halloween.
