Stem stitch flower design

 Hi all

Hope all are doing well and good.  Today I am happy to share with you a simple embroidery design to practice stem stitch.  In this design you can practice shading with stem stitch and also I have given some pictures to show how to work a pointed leaf using stem stitch.  

The stem is worked in rows of stem stitch using three shades of green. In the lower two leaves two rows of stem stitch is done and inside the leaf is filled with fly stitch.  Flower is worked using stem stitch.  Centre of the flower is done using straight stitches and the outlined with back stitch with a French knot in the centre.  

The leaves in the top is worked with one row of stem stitch with fly stitch inside.

Throughout the design I have used 3 strands of thread.  For backstitch I have used six strands of thread. 

Pattern for the design
