In the past I have listed places where you can find embroidery patterns, both free and not so free. So, dumb me, I thought I would do it again. Wow! I can’t believe how many sites there are in which to get embroidery patterns.
In gathering these sites together there is a real possiblity that I didn’t get everyone who carries cool patterns. Please feel free to let me know what I have missed. I will do a update post to make sure I cover everyone.
Also, This list is in no particular order. Some of these sites are blogs and you will have to search their blogs to find their patterns. Many of these sites offer patterns on Flickr, blogs, Etsy, Artfire and other places. Since my head was already hurting from trying to piece this article together, I will leave it to you to explore each pattern supplier. And lastly, many of these sites have both patterns to buy and free patterns.
ps- I don’t have a personal relationship with many of these pattern suppliers. I have no idea if any of them are evil.

Wool and Hoop I know her personally and we are carried by the same art gallery in Marfa, TX, Galleri Urbane. Besides her wonderful shop and online store she has two of the cutest kids I have ever seen.
The last three pattern makers listed you should already know about. If you don’t, hang you head in shame.
