No, it is not, I used some wss as a topper, but that's what I always do on towels.

Could this be broken down to only 1 or 2 roses at a time for the smaller hoop?

I started with one rose plus leaf then combined 2 that fit a 4x4 hoop and can be used for endless embroidery; then did this one to fit the guest towel; next made a corner design for a larger hoop which I want to try out on a piece of linen for hand embroidery.

OK, I'll have to stitch it out again as I did not like the angle the stem makes around rose 2 and 4, so I redid that.

54619Beautiful! How do you know when to put the v or / to place around edges? Rather than x's leaving hangout stitches. I see you have what looks like both from zooming in. This is gorgeous.

I only used full size crosses here.
I made this one on graphpaper, using excentric cirkels to get the flower, digitsed one, then duplicated and rotated and added the green.
You can use half crosses to get a more rounded shape, and outlines - which I did not in this design. I used outlines in the bears I made.

I hope you reconsider, those of us with a bigger hoop would probably love to purchase it. I know I would, it's beautiful!
