Red Work Patterns?

I am hoping to start some redwork embroidery this winter and wondered if I could ask any one who had some patterns they would be willing to share to bring them along.

I have started packing. We won't leave Washington till about the 15th of Oct but Iwant tobe more organized for a change. I saw a tv program about procrastination and I recoginzed myself. Of course this won't last.
Looking forward to our quilting season.
Thanks
Your friend Louise
