how lovely this is! I am so disenchanted with winter now it can GO! hugs Loralye
We had no hard winter in germany, in our region(Erzgebirge) we had barely snow this year and now we have the first snowdrops and crocuses and I am waiting every day to work in my garden.
You can't beat the beauty of one simple flower! Your thread choices are spot on! I always have trouble picking the right threads for shading, but you certainly have mastered that.
For the thread choice I taked the fabric and picked the colors matching the tulips on the fabric.Without fabric I have trouble too.
Beautiful, I love the border of tulips fabric you matched your colors to perfection.
Very pretty. I have been doing machine embroidered designs on runners to back my hand embroidered runners so they are reversible. I love your layout.
