Starry Serenade Redwork Pattern

starry02
I’ve been working on my contribution to Kirsty’s Rework Quilt Project and have been enjoying the gentle, repetitive stitching.

I drew up my pattern in Adobe Illustrator so thought it would be easy to write up some accompanying instructions, save it all as a pdf and put it up here as a downloadable embroidery pattern – for you! From me! For freee!

Let me know what you think  – I might do some more in the future.

    Popping back to say that it’s looking very lovely in shell pink on calico. Another one (in purple) will match it and be sent interstate so that each girl cousin will have one and think of the other.

    Thank you – I am always looking for simple embroidery patterns. I sew them, put borders on them, back them with flannel and give them to our local hospitals for their premie babies. This will be perfect!
