Tiny leaves? Just a little granito or daisy stitch would do. For the long leaves, I’d work any variety of stitch there that would fill a long shape: closed herringbone stitch, fishbone stitch, vertical fly stitch worked close – plenty of possibilities.
I’d probably do the flower petals in raised satin stitch dots, either leaving the center blank, or working some kind of textured stitch in the center. So many possibilities! Stitch Suggestions The lines could also be repeated, if you wanted to work them across a wide edge on anything – like a towel, a pillow case, a quilt border. Then, I duplicated and flipped it, discovering that it would make a sweet little frame for a monogram, too, if you’re into monograms.īut, even without the monogram, one line of the border – either the top or the bottom line – would make a simple, quick little accent for the center of a towel, or the corner, by tracing or transferring two lines of the design perpendicular to each other. I worked a very simple floral border up earlier this summer, thinking I might use it on a linen towel or even a flour sack towel.Īfter playing around with it for a bit, this was the resulting little border:Īfter doodling up the first line of flowers, I scanned it and then drew it as a vector. Today, just a quick little free hand embroidery design for you.
