Embroidery - Beautiful Vintage Lettering Patterns No. 4; Free To Use

Finally, here's the last set of letters matching the others (posted two, four, and six days previous).  I am working on drawing up the letters "I" and "W" because the original patterns did not include those letters for some reason.  I will post those two letters as soon as my drawings match the original versions to my satisfaction and hopefully yours as well.

The remaining letters in the original set are...

Letters  T and U:

 Letters V and X:

Letters Y and Z

 Note: Please see post with "No. 2" in the title and scroll to the Note that explains how to get a clean copy (without the blog gobbly-goop) of the images to your hard drive to make a neat print, if you choose to print the patterns.  I've gone so far as to put a piece of tracing paper on my (not a touch screen!) laptop monitor and trace an embroidery pattern or picture I thought would be nice to embroider.  I don't suggest doing that unless you have a very light-handed touch with a pencil, a strong press on your screen with a pencil could damage it. 

Enjoy!

Don't forget to look for the letters "I" and "W" coming within a few days, or maybe you're great with drawing (I'm sure far better than I!) and can draw your own letters I and W to match the rest of the set.  (Or, if you're lucky, you don't need those letters in the first place.  )  ;-D

Embroidery - Vintage Lettering No. 2; Free To Use

Here is the second post containing the embroidery patterns / templates that I promised you.  Included are the letters G, H, J, K, L, and M.  As I stated in a previous post, the letters "I" and "W" are not included in the 'complete' set, I am working on drawing them up and will post them as soon as I have them matching the others to my satisfaction.

Letters G and H

Letters J and K:

Letters L and M

The rest of the letters will be posted within a week or two.  If you have trouble finding the others just type "lettering" or "embroidery" in the search box at the top right corner of any post on THIS blog.  Typing into the Google (or other) search box will not give you results you are looking for here.

Please let me know if you have any questions or ideas, or just something you'd like to say in the comments below.

Note:  In order to print a clean copy of the patterns I suggest you do not try to print this page.  Instead, right click on the pattern image you wish to print, click "save image as..." and save it to a new folder named embroidery or lettering, or ???  It ought to save automatically as a .jpg file, you can use the file names I've used (it'll show in the "save" box automatically) or you may come up with your own file name.  Saving the image to your hard drive is the best way to get a clean print out, some of you may want to sharpen or increase the saturation, etc., depending upon your eyesight requirements using your computer's image editing program.  

Alternatively you can save the photos to a site like Photobucket or any one of the many photo hosting sites, most of which have their own built-in photo editors (in case you see a need for editing)

Embroidery - Beautiful Vintage Lettering: Free To Use

My box of embroidery thread has been beckoning me for a long time and I've ignored it up until now.  There are so many beautiful embroidery templates / patterns / designs / inspirations on the internet I can't help but heed the call of my threads, hoops, and needles.

Here is a set of vintage embroidery patterns (or templates, if you prefer), too beautiful not to share.  There is no letter "I" or letter "W" with this set but it would be easy to make one, I'll get to it asap to match the others.  For now, here are the first few sets of letters...  All of these vintage letters are covered under the Creative Commons and can be shared freely but never sold.  Whatever you make using these patterns can be sold, just not the pattern itself.  I think they're the most beautiful letters I've seen, what do you think about them? 

Note: due to large file sizes I am considering the capacity of your browser's ability to load this page and am only posting three sets of two letters each, at a time.  To find the rest of the upcoming letters, check back  within a week and type "embroidery" or / and "letters" in the search box on the top left of this post (or any post on this blog)

Letters A and B

Letters C and D

Letters E and F

The rest will be posted two, three, or four images at a time in soon to come posts, probably within two weeks.
