Here's the monthly embroidery for March. I always think of windy weather when March comes around. I've even designed a quilt block with kites for a club I used to belong to for their March project.
I appliqued 1 piece of fabric for the kite but you could do all 4 sections or just embroider the lines. Maybe add a lazy daisy flower or 2. I couched the lines with all 6 floss threads. The tail is 2 strands black done in back stitch and then lazy daisy stitches added along it. The black back stitch from the tail go into making the h in March. All of the text is back stitched. The cloud is back stitched in light gray with a white running stitch inside. The sun circle is stem stitched, the points are back stitched, a straight line goes in each point, and a running stitch goes around the circle and the points. The heart is chain stitched with 2 rows of running stitch. The running stitches are used to attach the heart to the background fabric.
Right click the pattern to save it to your hard drive. You'll need to print a pattern for tracing then you'll need to cut it out for the fabric pattern. You may want 2 patterns printed.
