Lately, when I'm finishing up the latest Floral Stitches sampler, I don't want the stitching to end. So I've taken to keeping it going with my own stitches where there aren't lines to follow.
For this one, I filled in the petals of the flower, and outlined all the leaves with a double row of stitches.
I'm continuing to stitch this series with Wonderfil perle cotton #8, just working through the stash of thread colors I have on hand. Nine done, and just three to go!
It's a testament to both the sampler and the joy you find in stitching that you are finding lovely ways to add on to them!
