I did all of the coneflowers first, as you see.
I'm using three strands of DMC floss.

I am not going to be around for a while; my 9 year old grandson has perished in a house fire. We are devastated.
This is going to be such a pretty piece!
ReplyDeleteThe embroidery makes just the right texture for the flower centers. (A rabbit ate the tops off of all my coneflowers…I hope they come back and manage to bloom like this at some point this summer!)
