Hand Embroidery Quilt Patterns

Do words like French Knot, Lazy Daisy and Running Stitch have you itching to pick up some embroidery floss and a needle? Embroidery has been around for hundreds of years and is still popular today.

Embroidery can be used to embellish a tea towel, a pillow or Christmas stocking. Or it can be the main force in a project. . . several embroidered blocks put together to make a full sized quilt, perhaps a saying surrounded by flowers for a wall hanging, or the center of blocks for a table runner. As many projects as you can imagine, there’s a way to use embroidery as a part of them.
