Wall hanging Verse 2

>

 Hi all 

Hope all are doing great.  Today I am happy to with you a new embroidered wall hanging verse.  In the beginning of this year I have posted another verse.  You can have a look at it here.

Stitches used:

Verse - Back stitch

Stem -  Stem stitch

Flowers - French knots

Leaves - Lazy Daisy

I have attached two designs which I have sampled last year along with the verse.  The first is stem stitch. The second one is portuguese stem stitch.

On the joined edges I have stitched a line of feather stitch and then added french knots to it.   I have sandwiched the embroidered piece with a layer of cardstock at the bottom, then a thin sponge sheet, then the fabric, then the transparent sheet. Used fabric glue to stick the four sides of each layer.  Then to make a simple frame I have attached a glue sticker like stone and pearl border on all four sides.  The frame is ready.  

I have misplaced the pattern file for this design.  I will update it soon.   In my next post I will come up with a small cross stitch finish.  Till then, have a happy time with needle and thread.
