I found a lovely site called cedarberrystitches.com that has patterns for "primitive" stitching, which looks just like what you are asking about. I don't have any patterns for that, but some of them look fun.

There are several sites that offer free monthly patterns for this. here are a few
www.gailpandesigns has a monthly pattern for A Christmas Wish.
bunnyhilldesigns has a cute basket stitchery
capriconquilts.blogspot has a real cute one called Quilters Blessings.
birdbraindesigns.net has some tea towels
There are lots more but right now my mind is blank. I will think of them and come back.

I looked at one of the downloads from the site zennia provided...it's embroidery. here's an excerpt from the download...
"The Stitchery:
Stitches used are: backstitch (BS), satin stitch (SS), running stitch (RS), lazy daisy (LD), cross stitch (CS)
and French knots (FN). Numbers below correspond to DMC Stranded Embroidery threads I used. Use two
strands of Embroidery thread unless otherwise stated."
I think it's just a case of one thing called by two names. You can find a lot of free samples too download on the internet...just google free primitive embroidery or free embroidery patterns.
