I just learned how to punch needle craft. What fun that is and it looks so ....neat when done. Does anyone have free patterns or know where to get patterns for punch needle? Would love tree ordaments patterns..

Debra, I posted a picture a few years ago, wondering what the very dangerous looking tools were, turns out they were punch needles...I don't have any patterns to give away, but I found a couple of awesome sites...

The first link Chandra shared is to my friend Sally's site, Amherst Antiques & Folk Art...she is a super resource for punchneedle and rughooking patterns, how-to's, etc!

Another great place to find punchneedle patterns (and others!) is Brenda's site:
http://www.countrystitchesonline.com/

You can also design your own with simple line drawings, or use rubber stamps, child's drawings, or whatever tickles your fancy! Depends on what's your style, I suppose... Happy punching!

Hope you'll share photos of what you create, Debra!

You're welcome, Debra! wow...snow...as much as I'm not looking forward to the wintry weather, the snow certainly helps one get into the Christmas spirit!
