Of all the beautiful patterns out there only a couple really stick in the design part of my memory. The Orla Kiely petals are one of those that I can’t get sick of because their so simple and colourful and just so darn nice! Of course I could buy something with this on it but cause i’ve got cross stitch OCD at the moment so I thought I might as well stitch it.
I started making this just before xmas but doing all those little stitches takes awhile. The hoop is about 30cm wide so there was a bit of work to do, but in the end its so plesant to look at, your glad you attempted it.
Aida cloth and lots of embroidery floss in lots of colours
