Free pattern: Chinese lanterns

January 19, 2012 by Denise Felton 2 Comments

Here’s a brilliant little giftie from Mollie of Wild Olive. In honor of the upcoming Chinese New Year, she’s sharing her original pattern for four teeny Chinese lanterns. She says,

After I did the lantern embroidery, I threaded a bit of floss through the hanger on the lantern, then secured the ends of the thread in the hoop edges. I like that it looks like it’s hanging there!

Nice! Go to her blog post for the link to the PDF pattern file.
