Flowers

"Flowers" - my new embroidery pattern packet is ready to go! I have stitched up several examples of some of the patterns included in this packet.
This first one is a beautiful bouquet of spring flowers - this particular pattern has a border around it. Since i stitched the border in a floss color that turned out to be way too dark, i cropped the border out for this picture :) You can see what the border looks like on the picture of the pattern packet - below.






I love this little flower image and the french knot
border! That is a tiny 4" hoop and it makes such a
nice frame i may just keep it as is!
















This particular pattern stitched up so quickly and really
turned out beautiful. I used a back stitch for everything. I really love this picture framed in this white frame.




















Here is the pattern packet and you can see
the border around the main pattern. This is a really fun set of patterns to stitch and the flowers really look beautiful and delicate. I think any color scheme would work beautifully for the flowers as well. I will just select a nice light floss color for my border next time!
Ok - back to designing - i am finishing up a new pattern packet featuring a beautiful tea service with all the accessories!
