Does anyone know where I might find a pattern for a mailbox cover? I saw one embroidered on heavy canvas, it was so cute. I have looked all over and can't seem to find one. Thanks everyone!

I have a friend that paints them, so I have never thought of a cover for them. I hope to see your finished project, soon. A flower for you. Loretta

Neat idea, blessinge, I'd never thought of doing one of these. Hugs and a flower sweetie.

I found a mailbox cover in Embroidery Library when I was looking for the sock pattern. :) :)

ooops, pattern, not the whole thing made already, pardon me

I have a cover for the mailbox out of vinyl and printed with flowers. I haven't thought of embroidering one . The one I have covers the sides and top but not the bottom. Magnets are attached to the bottom of each side to the vinyl ( underneath ) this attached to the metal Mailbox. I don't know if this helps ? Hope so. Great Idea. let us know if you do one. A flower for you.

If you do as dlonna said it would make it moree personalize.

You know, you could just about do one with anything that you wanted. Make a tube to cover you box, and embroider anything you wanted. I have seen them on boxes throught the area, but have never seen one on line anywhere.
