April Showers – Free Hand Embroidery Pattern

March 15, 2021 by Claudia Porter Leave a Comment

Made as part of a quilt block, this charming little design is from Super Mom No Cape!.  This pattern has all sorts of sweet little details in it and it’s pretty small.  It is designed to be the center of a 12.5 inch Dresden quilt block. Wow!

Using hand embroidery stitches including backstitch, whipped backstitch, lazy daisy, french knots, and the woven wheel, it is a pattern best for embroiderers with some experience.

From thread color to stitching, you will find everything you need to know to make this pattern.   There is also a free downloadable template.

I love the three flowers and the rain and sun in the design.  And, of course, everyone knows that “April Showers Bring May Flowers”.

The idea of adding the embroidery to a quilt block is something one doesn’t see every day.  It adds such a unique touch to the block.  I could easily see this turned into a mini wall hanging or, if you are adventurous, an entire quilt.
