Fan-taz-mik Freebie Friday

Here is a list of some great sites that I found super scrumptious free designs.  Life is wonderful when you find free stuff! Strap yourself in and screaming in joy is allowed!



The Sampler Maker's Farmhouse has several primitive designs which would stitch up quickly. I am partial to the Peace Cardinal. http://samplermakerfarmhouse.blogspot.com/p/free-primitive-cross-stitch.html

 
In the Company of Friends is no longer accessible thru the internet, it can only be found thru the web archive.  You can access it thru the link I have provided.  These are designed by Julie Buck. There is the above design, Ouija Board.  I love the alphabet style.  There is also a "Dark Alphabet" dedicated to the memory of Lisa Roswell of the Primitive Needle who died in the horrible flooding in her area.
The alphabet is very unique.  All of the patterns are in PDF format for downloading.

Sandy from Montana has quite a few free designs on her blog " Stitchin' and Life in a Small Town".  I think she sells her designs also but could not find where.  Very generous designer with fantastic talent.  http://smalltownstitchin.blogspot.com/search/label/My%20Original%20Designs

For years I have received Luli's newsletter.  She offered elegant and simple designs.  You will have to page back to find them but they are definitely worth the hunt.  Her blog is in French.  Enjoy the trip.  http://ioluli.blogspot.fr/

I love French designers, there is an elegance about their designs that appeals to me.  Le Blog de Piatene is a feast for the eyes.  You have to page back to find her offerings but her photos on the blog make it a delight. http://les-douces-heures-de-piatine.over-blog.com/tag/grilles%20gratuites/

 

A clown, a bus, cupcakes, a lion head, a Happy Meal, pancakes, Pokémon characters, a mushroom, a pig and tons more subjects can be found at the blog "Un Jour".  These designs definitely have a Kawaii or whimsical style to them and they are so much fun.  Pages and pages await your perusal at http://un-jour-une-grille.over-blog.com/ .
