Free Easter goodies

I’ll admit it: I like doing giveaways because it drives traffic to my site. More traffic leads to more exposure which may lead to more sales. I checked the numbers for the last giveaway (the Irish Bear for St. Patrick’s Day) and the views and downloads were climbing for both the PDF pattern and the wallpapers. So here’s another couple of freebies just in time for Easter!

First up for the stitchy people– a free Easter bunny in a basket PDF embroidery pattern (or coloring page)!

Free Easter bunny embroidery pattern – Click here to download .PDF (201.4 kb)

Print this out and transfer onto your fabric by taping the page up to a brightly-lit window and tracing the outline with a fabric pen. You can also use transfer paper to transfer the illustration on to your fabric.

And let’s not leave out the crafty paper posse as I also have free printable Easter stationery sheets:

Free Easter stationery sheets – Click to download the PDF (5.3 MB)

This stationery page fits three sheets on a letter-sized page. Just print it out as many or as little pages as you need using your colored home printer and cut along the provided lines.

Both downloads are in .PDF format. You will need the free Adobe Reader to view these files.

With Easter just a few days away, these are perfect for those last-minute Easter shoppers who missed out on scouring their local shops for Easter goodies. They’re all here and they’re even free! Do keep in mind though that while these are free to download, they’re only for your personal use and by no means will they be used for commercial purposes. I still retain copyright to the artwork.

I’ve made a few embroidery patterns for Sew It’s For You’s Etsy shop and we’ve decided to make a new pattern available for download just in time for St. Patrick’s Day. We don’t celebrate St. Patrick’s Day here in the Philippines so I had to ask Julie what the holiday involves. “St. Patrick’s Day is an Irish holiday,” she said. “Loads of 4 leaf clovers, leprechauns, green beer, pots of gold, rainbows, drunk ass people…” O-kay, got it! I wasn’t sure I wanted to draw “drunk ass people” on something that might possibly be embroidered on baby burp cloths, so here’s an adorable, family-friendly St. Patrick’s Day PDF pattern for you, free! You can use it as an embroidery pattern or print it out as a coloring page for your kids (or yourself).

I like the little bear dude a lot (he’s a character I’ve been drawing since my college days– I will have to dig out my early 2002 sketches of him when he looked a lot different from today) so I colored him digitally and turned him into a nice wallpaper also free for download.

Click to download the image above as a desktop wallpaper at the following sizes:

1280 x 800
1440 x 900
