Posted on by

This elegant free design depicts an angel in stylized sections, as if cut from glass. The motif is complemented by a star with small angel pendants – a delicate and translucent effect that gives the piece a glowing appearance.

The pattern is stitched on 8-thread linen using 2 strands of flora-cotton. It mainly employs backstitch and half cross stitch, creating a refined and airy look.

  • Finished size: 72 x 32 cm
  • Materials: Linen, flora-cotton
  • Techniques: Backstitch & half cross stitch
  • The pattern is completely free

A perfect project for anyone who loves combining classic stitches with a modern, almost stained-glass inspired design.

Runner stitched using cross- and back-stitches on linen, 10 threads/cm. Size approx. 28 x 102 cm.

The pattern was created from a black and white sketch, using a PC. Some of the initial sketch lines were edited a bit, to make them better suited for back-stitches. The light grey stitches help to make the pattern more clear, and the blue stitches gives the pattern form. The dark silver stitches are added along the edges for more detail.
