Here are 8 offers for patterns that are free-for-a-limited-time. So you better snag ’em quick!

As a designer I like to offer my patterns free for 24 hours when they launch. Its a nice way to get my designs out into the stitching community. I also like to keep an eye out for other designers who do similar promotions. I always have a link to a limited-time-freebie pattern over in the right sidebar (unless you are on a mobile and then it might be below this post). Sometimes its hard to find a deal to fill that spot. Sometimes I have a choice between two or three. And there are days like today when I have 8 offers for free-for-a-limited time patterns. How is a blogger supposed to choose just one??

 

She doesn’t. She makes up a special post with all of ’em. And nags you to go get you free patterns right now before these offers expire!
