I am super excited to show you my newest Embroidery pattern in the Flamingo Toes shop!
This new “Hello Love” – Retro Floral Typewriter Embroidery pattern was so fun to design and stitch up. It’s the first in a Retro Floral series that I’ll be doing over the next month or so. I thought that a typewriter all decorated with flowers and a little love note would be the perfect project to kick off the series!
The embroidery is all the basic stitches I usually use – back stitch, lazy daisies and french knots. You can find instructions for all of them on the Embroidery Tips page.
I was a little worried about how long the keys would take but they actually went together pretty quickly! I love how they give the project almost a hand-drawn look.
The pattern is sized for a 9″ hoop but I think it would look great in a 10″ x 10″ frame too.
You can purchase the pattern here – it’s only $5!
All my PDF patterns are instant downloads so there are no waiting for emails. The pattern includes a DMC floss color chart, and the patterns are in a color version, black and white, and a reversed image in case you want to use an iron-on transfer pen.
While you’re there, you can check out all the Floral Woodland embroidery patterns too!
I so appreciate your support of my projects and my shop! Thank you!

I am absolutely drooling over this fabulous design! I was going to purchase your pattern right away, but I’ll wait to see who wins first :) Either way, this is definitely a must-have. LOVE LOVE LOVE!!!
I just love this pattern! It would surely brighten anyone’s wall, and day. Thanks for your generosity, in creating it and sharing it through the giveaway.
I have two old typewriters. One is an old black manual, one gray electric model. I have hauled them out on several occasions and tried to find an interesting, attractive way to not only display them but to let my grandchildren type on them. But don’t have much creative talent and after a few days, I end up putting them back in the closet. Maybe I could try again and with the embroidered picture, the display would have more appeal. So cute, so retro, so bright !!!
I just fell in love with this embroidered picture for that fact I just love embroidered towels and anything else I have come across . and this would be the icing on the cake .
Love the Retro Typewriter pattern.
So 70’s, 80’s…. :)

What a perfectly cute design…especially for those of us who actually use to type on these “slower” typewriters !
That’s such a gorgeous pattern and so meaningful.
This is beautiful! :)
In High School typing class, you had to get there quickly if you wanted one of the 2 fancy electric typewriters – all the rest were manual. There were often line-ups outside the door!

Over 50 years ago I went through nursing school typing all my class notes on a portable which could be a twin to your embroidery (Less the flowers.) Actually I still have it. Love the pattern. Love your blog. By the way I am still working as a nurse. Hope to soon get more time to doing my endless list of projects.
I miss the sound that a typewriter makes.
Your pattern is so cute! I have my grandfather’s old typewriter that he used for all his letters. I would use this pattern to make a dust cover for it.
