I was browsing on the internet this morning looking for free stitchery sampler patterns.  Personally I am not that good at cross stitch or needlepoint but I do seem to have quite a few stitchery kits in my craft room, some started and some never opened.  Also, I have made a few as gifts over the years.

Anyway, here are two sampler patterns that I found this morning:

• Anniversary Sampler from Better Homes and Gardens. If you have friends or family members celebrating a special Wedding Anniversary, this would make a beautiful gift. Click here for supply list and to download the pattern.

• New England Button Sampler from About.com . I think this would make a great gift for that friend who is a crafter or to hang in your craft/sewing room.  Click here for supply list and instructions.

If you are looking to buy stitchery sampler patterns or kits be sure to check on Ebay –
