Looking through my stash of vintage cross stitch patterns I decided to add a few more free patterns, this time children's themed patterns. The first two, old fashioned little girls, would be super easy and fast to sew, could be quickly stitched into holiday ornaments or stitched side-by-side for a pretty sampler for a little girl's room.
Sunbonnet Sue style:
This page depicts several old fashioned scenes of children playing..... love the skaters!
Not children, but these patterns could be used to decorate children's clothing or maybe embellish baby sheets, the bunnies, squirrel and Doxie dogs are pretty darn cute! Of course, the scary kitties would be better for Halloween decorations and the rooster would be great on a tea towel.

And I don't know the story behind this but it reminds me of a storybook tale ..... perhaps Hansel and Gretel?
Coming from the same page are these adorable bunnies. Love the repeat pattern!
There is something charming about old fashioned imagery that never seems to go out of style. These vintage cross stitch patterns are just as sweet today as there were 100 years ago when there were first published.
Thank you for your paterns! I have use the green scaters above in my printercase (don't know if this is good in english...) and put a link to your blog on mine.
