Candlewicking
Candlewicking, or candlewick is a form of
Colonial American designs.[1]
Modern designs include colored floss embroidery with the traditional white on white stitching.
Loom-woven or machine-made candlewicks of the early 19th century are white bedcovers with designs created during the weaving process by raising loops over a small twig or tool.[1][2]
Contemporary candlewicking is most commonly used as a cushion cover.
