The embroidery is all done on this project from my Beach House pattern set.
I used seven different stitches.
The circle outline is Double Knot Stitch. The starfish are Fishbone Stitch.
The "life" text is a combination of Blanket Stitch, Back Stitch, Stem Stitch and a French Knot.
The text "is better at the" is also a combination of Back Stitch, Stem Stitch and a French Knot.
The "Beach" text is all Stem Stitch.
The clam shell is outlined with Back Stitch and Stem Stitch. The inside has French Knots and Straight Stitches:
The color palette for this project is so pretty! I think the colors match some of the beautiful shades found in beach glass.
I recorded all the details of this project for my Embroidery Journal:

Beautiful subtle summery colors, and lovely use of the Double Knot and Fish Bone stitches!
