Andrea Zuill’s Blog

  Okay, so I almost forgot this months pattern.  I give  thanks to that “special” someone who reminded me by stating, “Where’s the pattern.  I want my free pattern”.

So imagine if you will, a pencil frantically sketching page after page until the artist yells, “Aha, I’ve got it”. Next, imagine this same artist, a middle aged somewhat plump woman, running at full speed toward her scanner.  Sliding into her seat she places her drawing into the scanner, then calls up her scanner program on her computer, hits scan, and waits as she watches the scanner begin to glow in anticipation as it discovers what next wonder of art it is about digest.  

Through a process that can only be described as “magic” the artist finds that she is able to upload her newest and edgiest artwork into her Illustrator program.  With the precision of a surgeon the artist uses the pencil function in her Illustrator program to draw onto her earth shatteringly artistic masterpiece.  Erasing the orginal drawing, what is left is nothing short amazing. 

With the edition of some magical symbols that are placed at the upper left hand and lower right hand corner of her work she feels secure that evil forces will think twice about doing something naughty with her artwork.   Now the art is ready.  The only step left is to introduce her newest piece to the world through her blog. 

So,  I would like to introduce to you the embroidery pattern called, “Wee Baby Goat”.

I hope you are happy.

  A lot of people requested a boy themed embroidery pattern.  I went into my sketch books and found this little guy.  Hope you enjoy him.

  I really liked what everyone did with the Heart, Bird and Flowers pattern that was last January’s free pattern.  Quite a few of you stated that you liked that style.  For this month’s pattern I did a simular folk style pattern with a bunny.  Can’t wait to see what you do with this one.

  I have been thinking and thinking, “What should the December pattern be?”  Then I thought why not a freakishly cute penguin!  So, Ta Dah!

Do you remember the extremely cute penguin that was in a Bugs Bunny cartoon?  I believe that character was called the Hoboken Penguin.  This pattern is my nod to that sweet cartoon creature.

  So, trying to decide on this months pattern was hard for me.  I just couldn’t come to grips with doing a Thanksgiving pattern.  I thought pilgrim or maybe turkey, but I just couldn’t.  Then I thought, hey I’ll go P.C. and doing a Native American design, but I’m not Native American so is that really P.C..  I finally went with a somewhat traditional sampler.  It’s a bit folk artsy.  I hope you enjoy it.

Here is October’s embroidery pattern.  I kind of cheated.  You might notice that this is the line drawing for a Halloween print I have in my Etsy store.  I have been so busy it seemed the easiest thing to do.  I have my first class I will be teaching this Saturday and I have been organizing my thoughts.  There wasn’t enough though left to create a original Halloween pattern.  Hope that is Okay.

Sorry for being so late with this month’s free pattern.  I have been very busy with getting everything together for my quilting class, my daughter heading off to school and other such things. 

I hope you enjoy this month’s pattern!
