The People's Choice SAL: Freebies

It's high time for the next wonderful installment of Jo's 'The People's Choice' SAL! This month's theme is Freebies, and I've seen some wonderful posts already, full to the brim with lovely freebies of famous and less-well-known designers. Personally, I had planned to stitch a new thing up - and I did, thus the delay in posting! - but now I also want to share a few of the other ones I've stitched.

The new one for this month is Durene Jones' 'Hello Spring' - it used to be free on her facebook page, I am not exactly sure if and where you can find it now. I had already stitched 'Hello Summer' from the same series last year, and I could sweat I posted it, but apparently I haven't!


Now looking through my pictures I realized that the vast majority of the free patterns I've stitched - like, 90% or so - are by my dear friend Magical, so I'll dedicate the remainder of this post to her. Of course you know my ornaments of the month from 2015, but I also stitched a couple of her princess 'fobs' (well, the Pocahontas one is a tad to big to make a fob!) and of course there are her Magical Mystery Stitchalongs...coincidentally, there will be a new one on Easter weekend, with the first pre-stitch coming out March 15th! If you like her patterns, you should really check it out, it's tons of fun. I'm putting a link to the new SAL here, it's on her blog where you can also find all her other patterns and info on all the SALs she's hosting this year, she's crazy productive!

So much goodness! I love the Durene Jones pieces and you know how I'm a fan of Magical's patterns.........I seriously love how you finished all of the 2015 ornaments and am glad you didn't go crazy small like I did haha!

Thanks for taking part in The People's Choice this month. Those Durene seasons are sweet. Thanks for the link to Magical, I'll add her to the page of freebies on my blog.

I do love Magical's patterns with all my heart and can never spread the word enough! I still have a few of the 2015 ornaments I go, but I so love the ones that are finished.
