Celebrating Spring Season

Now that I have taken up my hobbies quite seriously, I am completing all pending projects one at a time. You will see my finished works here on my blog.

Spring is around the corner. Mother Nature will be at her colourful best. So I am celebrating Spring season adding more colour to my life and enjoying it.

Well here have a look at the new additions to my stash:
 Some reds, oranges and peaches
 Some pinks and lilacs
 Some variegated threads of different colours
Some blacks, whites and blues...

These 6 strand cotton threads. 

Now that I am going to do more and more embroidery and other crafts and have also taken up teaching them, I am preparing for it....

So keep an eye on my blog for more....


Design A Day-Day 11

Here I am with Day 11-another floral pattern.
 I started with this simple pattern. But added something more during embroidery.
These were the colours I used-light pink, dark pink variegated pink and green.  All are 6 strand.I sued all 6 strand through out. 
The center is a single Chinese Knot(dark pink), surrounded by a ring of Chinese knots and a circle of Chain stitch. I have used feather stitch for small branches, stem stitch for leaves as well as stem. The buds are Chinese Knots.
Here is the pattern for you.
