Bright, Shiny Stitches…

 

Adding Stems and Leaves
I spent time stitching yesterday afternoon. I added centers to the large blossoms, calyx to the smaller buds, completed two leaves, and added most of the stems to one set of blooms. 

The leaves were especially fun to work on. They’re stitched using two needles with three threads in each one. I love the effect.

I’ll be finishing this first stem today, and then I’ll see how far I get on the second. I do love the look of these sparkling, metallic fibers!

    The leaves are wonderful, as is the entire piece, but they are so unique.

      Thanks, MA-
      They’re fun to stitch, too! I may have to do a short video to show how they’re created.

    These are stunning. I also love the sparking threads and of course the blue beads. Two needles sounds interesting.

      Hi Sherry-
      I may have to share a little technique to show a few of the areas and how they were created.
      Thanks!
