Hi all
Hope all are doing well and good. In my embroidery design series, today I am happy to share with you a simple design that uses buttonhole stitch for flowers and leaves. It is an easy stitch for a beginner. It makes an easy filling for flowers.
This design can be used as a single motif or can be used as an all over design for your kurtis or sarees. It can be worked continuously to form a border design. It looks very simple but gives more elegance to your dresses.
Let us see the design now.
Flowers - Buttonhole stitch - 35 (3 strands)Leaves - Buttonhole stitch - 212 (3 strands)Centre of flower - French knots - 315 (6 strands, 1 Wrap)Stem - stem stitch - 212 - 3 strands
The fabric I have used to stitch the design is Mercerised Dyed cotton canvas in powder pink colour. You can purchase it through the above link. It is a good quality fabric to do embroidery.
In my next post I will come up with a customised embroidery which I am doing it for my friend. Till then, have a nice day and have a happy time with your needle and thread.
Shami: You make it look so easy, very pretty design.
