Chick and Duck Embroidery – Applique Pattern Set

By cherie Applique Patterns, Baby Animal Sets, Chickens, Ducks & Swans, Embroidery Patterns, Fowl 0 Comments

This duck and chick set of patterns are roughly six inches so they are suitable for applique and baby quilt blocks. For applique work you could leave the edges raw, glue the pieces down to the base fabric and then couch over a few strands of embroidery thread or perle cotton or even crochet cotton.

Rooster Days-of-the-Week Embroidery Pattern Set

I could do with some roosters around here to help with the chores. Neat cross stitch detail in the tails or you could just outline the shapes if X’s aren’t your thing.

Chicken Embroidery Patterns

By cherie Chickens, Embroidery Patterns, Fowl 7 Comments

Chicken embroidery patterns…we put the free in free range 🙂 The Wednesday chickens are probably orphans, the other six are MIA.

Most of the patterns are for embroidery but I do plan on expanding the quilting and crochet collection and adding knitting patterns………. my other favorite craft obsession. They are all vintage, copyright-free, with some dating back to the 1800s. Print them out, trace them with a hot iron transfer pen or trace them directly onto fabric using a sunny window or a lightbox. A cheap and easy lightbox can be simply fashioned by putting a lamp under a glass table and stacking the pattern and fabric on the glass. I use kid’s fine point crayola markers for tracing the lines but any washable pen will do just fine.

All the patterns are free and from my personal collection. You may download the embroidery patterns by clicking on the image and saving to your computer. You may use them for stitching items for personal use or for items that you intend to sell. You may not assemble them in a collection as I have on this site to give away or sell digitally (CD, website, etc.) Those of you that intend to digitize the images for machine embroidery either for personal use or commercially are free to do so as the work in digitizing is your own!
