Welcome to another addition of Freebie Friday, where every Friday you get a free PDF embroidery pattern. If you would like to be reminded of the freebies here please subscribe (I don’t spam, and you can always unsubscribe).

This week’s pattern is the word, Noel. One of my favorite Christmas words. Noel means Christmas in French. To me, it means Uncle Noel. Uncle Noel was my godfather, or sponsor… aka, the guy who gave me Christmas presents every year. Not that he knew what was in the box, but my aunt bought and signed his name to them every year. LOL

This pattern is the third in a series of five mini patterns that I will be offering. I also made a 2022 hoop pattern to go along with these mini patterns. You can find the links for all the patterns below.

• 2022 hoop pattern for a year of memories
• Mini holly leaf pattern

Instructions for getting the pattern onto the fabric:

• With embroidery pens, trace all lines onto the fabric
• Carefully remove tape from the fabric and pattern
• Place fabric in hoop and stitch
