    Hi Heather1949 from Australia, :-D
    I am so glad to be joining your site, pleased to meet you all and hope we can be good friends, I am into candlewicking at the moment but am finding it very hard to find patterns.

    Hi and welcome aboard. Almost any pattern/picture of anything can be turned into a candlewicking project. You can put a picture of what you want on a light board or window, place your fabric over it and use a pen with water soluble ink to place your dots. Simple designs will work best. Candlewicking is becoming a lost art, it's good to know that someone is keeping it alive.
