Natalia Frank of Natalia's Fine Needlework has released a new free rug chart for 2018.
http://www.dollhouseneedlepoint.com/free-patterns
Natalia describes the new rug this way, "Each year I offer a new free pattern as my "thank you" to all friends, customers, all stitchers who was by my side through the life time and supported my business. You inspire me to work harder. Thank you for keeping my motivation up. This year I would like to offer a pattern for Konya carpet that has been charted based on the original 18th century carpet that is located in The Mevlâna Museum in Konya, Turkey, the mausoleum of Jalal ad-Din Muhammad Rumi. The rug, based on the motifs, symbolizes fertility and happiness. The pattern is charted for use of DMC floss, but my advice would be to use over dyed thread to give that antique and worn look to it."
Natalia does this every year as a thank you to her customers. This is designed for 48 count silk gauze but you can adjust the ground fabric and threads to suit yourself.
