PTI MARCH 2016 BLOG HOP CHALLENGE

Swooning over the stitchy goodness in the inspiration photo for the PTI  

MARCH 2016 BLOG HOP CHALLENGE.



The Grey with Bright pops of embroidered colors are so happy!
Here is my take on the inspiration using Doodlie-Do and some simple straight stitching for the petals.
I incorporated a sort of french knot and pink sequins 
from the Shakers + Sprinkles Sequin Collection for the center of the bloom. 
SMILE and Embroidered Border dies worked nicely to finish it off.

Thanks for hopping by!

This is very pretty, Laura Jane! Great stitch work as well. I was trying to mentally go over the stitches I knew in my head and the French Knot is one of them. No floss at my house though. *wink*
