Thank you all :}
I realize now that most of patterns are for machine embroidery, but is it possible to embroider them by hand?
thanks :}

I suppose the X stitch ones could be used. You would have to have a program that turns the design into BMP or any picture file. I think also that the other ones could be done by hand. It will be interesting what others have to say. They would be never exactly the same.

You would have to do it like counted cross stitch, on some webbing. Or print a template and then put it on a transfer sheet. But it would be difficult. Most of them are many thousands of stitches.

Thank you all :)
for flowers too!
As for hand embroidery, I had in mind something like satin stitch or needlepoint,that might look more similar to machine embroidery than cross-stitch. thanks for the links :)
I find that I spend more time online, looking for new stuff, than I actually needlework :D
So, I'm off to finally WORK on it :))
