Floral Stitches Year II - Bouquet

Stitching this Dropcloth @dropcloth Floral Stitches sampler began on a little road trip a few weeks ago. It was the perfect size to travel with!

It was the first of this series where I used two kinds of threads - mostly a double-strand of Wonderfil perle cotton #8; but those green leaves circling the flowers felt a little more fine, so I used a double-strand of Aurifil 12wt thread, and that worked a little better. One strand may have shown off more detail but what's done is done.



There were a lot of French knots in this one! Good thing I enjoy them, or at least don't mind them. It's  time to move on to some holiday stitching now....
