Free candle prick and stitch pattern to download
Posted on Monday, January 5th, 2009I originally designed the candle pattern for my String Art Is My Craft web site and it has been popular with string art enthusiasts. A number of card crafters have said that they would like to try it as a greetings card pattern so I have now converted it for prick and stitch.
The illustration shows the card stitched using Kreinik 1 ply polyester metallic cord. The base is antique gold, the candle red and the flame gold.
You can download the instructions and pricking pattern from the link below:
The pattern is in a PDF file and you will need Adobe Reader to view and print it. Adobe Reader software can be downloaded free of charge from the Adobe website.
Please let me know how you get on with this pattern by using the comment link below. If you would like to display a picture of the card that you make from it please email it to me at prickandstitch@ismycraft.

Beautiful! And how generous you are to share the pattern! I’ve scheduled a link to this post to go live on my blog later this morning (Central USA time). I hope it brings you a few extra clicks.
