Hi all
Hope you all had a great weekend. Today I am happy to share with you an embroidery design that uses Ring knot stitch. This is similar to french knot but with a little variation. It is worked like french knots with a loop. Tomorrow we will see the tutorial for working the Ring knots. Now let us see the design.
In the centre of the flowers, here and there in the stems and leaves I have glued half pearls. You can use this design for kurtis and extend this to make borders also. Two years back I have embroidered a kurti neck using this ring knots. You can view it here.

I love how you used the pearl buttons to accent the flowers. Did you teach yourself how to embroider?
