18 More Websites with Free Embroidery Patterns

June 15, 2021 by Laura 2 Comments

I’m back with another roundup of websites that offer free embroidery patterns! There are so many stunning printable designs to choose from, you might not know where to begin!

18 More Websites with Free Embroidery Patterns to download and print at home. DIY Embroidery designs PDF printables. Modern hand embroidery patterns to download for free.

This post contains affiliate links. Read more.

I tried to find as many modern embroidery patterns as I could. I really feel like hand embroidery is making a huge comeback as a traditional skill but not so much with the older, traditional designs. We’re going for contemporary, bright and cheerful patterns here! 

So combined with the 17 sites from the first post I wrote, I’ve now rounded up a total 35 websites that offer beautiful free embroidery patterns that you can download! 

And of course I have a few freebie patterns here at The Yellow Birdhouse too. 🙂 This floral wreath pattern is one of my most popular posts, and this floral fox and bunny set is free too! The fox and bunny come with a free stitch guide which shows you how to do 10 common embroidery stitches. 🙂

Multiple Free Embroidery Patterns per Site

The following 10 websites all have multiple free embroidery designs to choose from.

1. French Mango

4 Gorgeous stitch-along challenges for the seasons and 4 adorable free patterns. She also has a number of Embroidery 101 posts to help you out and a lovely selection of patterns and kits in her shop!

2. Crewel Ghoul

This site has a number of modern patterns to choose from including this snake plant embroidery and a cute sewing machine. Also a desert moon and I really like these lemons!.

3. Jessy Rat Fink on Instructables

She has almost 600 instructables ranging in topics from embroidery to plant care to slime-making!

4. All People Quilt

The Lavender and Dandelion patterns are so sweet. This Mother’s Blessing would be a great baby shower gift for a new mama, and excuse me while I dash off to make an embroidered clock! I love a project that can turn hand embroidery into a practical item.

This site also has a lot of cute cross stitch patterns.

5. Sublime Stitching

You have to sign up to see what free patterns are available, but it’s totally worth it! They are so adorable. There’s a robot, hedgehog, florals, potted cactus and more. I won’t share any images since the artist was careful to keep her designs password protected. But take my word for it, you won’t be disappointed!

6. Gathered

Pretty Bicycle, Beaded Octopus,  Nighttime Camping & Hexie Bee.

I’ve never done an embroidery with beading before, I’d love to give this edgy octopus a try! And wouldn’t that bicycle be perfect for Valentine’s Day or an anniversary gift?

Happy stitching!

    Love this roundup of free patterns! Thanks!
    Just letting you know the “A Mother’s Blessing” pattern you have listed is the work of Sarah Jane (illustrator) of Sarah Jane Studios. She has it for sale on her site.
