Free Clipart Alert – Resources to Design your Own Needlepoint

Dover Book are, hands down, my favorite sources for line drawings and ideas for my needlepoint. In fact they take up about 2 shelves of space (out of five) in my inspiration book shelf.

Virtually all their clipart is royalty free so you can use it for your needlepoint without worries. The collection covers the whole gamut of styles, so no matter where you tastes lie, you can find something of interest.

So I was delighted to find out that they have a free weekly clipart sampler sent to your email. Sign up here.

The picture above is from the free sample selection linked from their thank you page. Can’t you see him done in needlepoint with a grand robe made from variations of Scotch Stitch? And there were lots of other neat ideas in this sample as well.

    Thanks for highlighting such a tremendous resource. I’d love to buy all the Dover books. But I’ll settle for what I have plus what I find at used books stores and now this added online resource.
