Hi I want to make some Gothic style frames to sell on my Craft Stall. I was thinking one in the style of a Church window and one with a Celtic knot design (or similar) around the edge. I can't find any Gothic shaped patterns on the internet Head Bange , and I don't want to go ripping of someone elses design. I would really appreciate it if anyone could tell me where I can buy these types of designs for commercial use. I prefer to work from computer so I can scale the pattern up and down accordingly. Thanks for any help Frank H </IMG> |

Try your local bookstores,,Dover press puts out dozens of books on most any type of pattern you can think of,Celtic,Gothic,Roman,Middle East,,you name it ,they probably have it.I'm sure there are others,,but it's a good start.You'll find them in the Art sections.Reasonably priced with Hundreds of designs in each..

The publisher of this forum, Fox Chapel Publishing, has 23 different books with Celtic patterns. Go to http://www.foxchapelpublishing.com/searchproducts.cfm and put celtic in the search box at the upper left, then hit the go button. Claude |

Hi, Thanks all of you for the ideas and advice. Marc, I have some of the Dover books but there were no frames the right shape there, but thanks for the advice. I didn't know about the Fox publishing books so thanks Claude, I will have a look at the titles. And Thanks also Feb, I looked again at the freebies on the wood carving pattern site, and there are a couple of gothic style frames but I missed them because they are upside down ! Thanks again, and if anyone happens to come across a nice design please let me know where to find it. Frank H |
