I want to put red worked baby animals on a baby quilt. Where do I get the patterns or do I draw my own.?
Thank you in antisipation of your excellent replies.

You could draw your own, use coloring book pages , or, Annie's Attic carry some. The ones from long ago were ( Aunt Martha's embroidery patterns) if you search Aunt Martha's you may find different places to purchase them. I still have a few of those patterns from my grandmother-- used a great set called ( Love Beneath the Willows) for a red work picnic quilt I made years ago- still a favorite.

What I have done n the past is put into Google "Redwork embroidery designs " and thousands of site come up to look at , pick a picture and print it off , you have the pattern you want .

Are you planning to do them by hand or machine?? There looks like there are published books:

You could also use any applique patterns. Just outline them in your red embroidery thread. There are lots of gorgeous applique patterns.

You could get a coloring book and just trace the items you want or you should be able to get something from the internet now as everything can be found there. I believe there is a website that has patterns you can print off. I know my granddaughters are doing this all of the time. Maybe try searching "coloring book animals." Good luck on your search.

I think it is funny mine is showing there with the sues in the green print from here on the quilt board.
There was a book showing that was called cherished redwork quilts for baby that looked interesting by leasure arts.

Here is an old time quilt called the roly poly circus animals quilt. I always loved that pattern.

Here is the last one for you. It is pages and pages of old red work designs free from a graphic designer's site.
