Hi, I have bought few bullion rose design and they dont look as nice because the embroidery work is kind of flat. I heard abt the center portion being sewn on to add a finished touch to the flower. Anyone has idea or tutorial on how to go about doing it. Thanks!

I might have something from Sew Beautiful magazine. I will look. But in the mean time I would think it would be easy to 'google' bullion rose directions. I would think there would be directions available on the web.

A bullion st is easy to do after a wee bit of practice. Helen

Thanks from all the hand embroiders. I am NOT one, but do appreciate seeing how they are done (through hard work).

Here are some sites I found by doing a Google search. There is even a video. It is much easier than it seems. Have fun!
