It's just when you get out all the supplies, Laces, Fabrics, Embellishments and start to play with positioning and colour it is very difficult to stop at one. It can be a way of adding stitches, sequins, ribbon embroidery, buttons, beading, and laces of course.</p><p>Many of us have a stash hidden away, of all the odds and ends that are just not enough of to make up a full project but with snippets strips, clusters etc. they can all add up to something beautiful. It is not necessary to be into Journaling to make use of the strips, I will be adding posts at a later date to give some ideas of other purposes. </p><p>For the time being here is this weeks eye candy. </p><p>VINTAGE ANGELS - Ivory / Blues</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhWwUpR9C7L3Hr_IUwsmTvLdTilXf5bz74kaVT0fpjUOGV_TXv0OA1pdVpAJKESQ3n7a49JZlUbCUr6vrCIrSUAdrNxfrMOxMPKYPKdAKw4wb1ulPD0BNqbcTmBSgSOHDik9G0cycxSZb3aEwm07wyBgsnsIDrOgsnoGN3BkUdxvq0jUX35_KoAfvzKxddC/s3976/Angels1.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2065" data-original-width="3976" height="333" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhWwUpR9C7L3Hr_IUwsmTvLdTilXf5bz74kaVT0fpjUOGV_TXv0OA1pdVpAJKESQ3n7a49JZlUbCUr6vrCIrSUAdrNxfrMOxMPKYPKdAKw4wb1ulPD0BNqbcTmBSgSOHDik9G0cycxSZb3aEwm07wyBgsnsIDrOgsnoGN3BkUdxvq0jUX35_KoAfvzKxddC/w640-h333/Angels1.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">SHABBY ROSES SET</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj1T1sgRUT2DlOp_rTHL5pXNKKlFNxPX7WiMusX-D_ljNJvjmXyI_Ld_tvbru_G0o-totOphlaoJ7is2jGhDpeZhStATbpe0vPxFzOgVSCWKLMw6WG6GfSwab1euTemUcRrb-09RpfaM0blTEJbu4DlgXl0bOBHoV4PQNUuCw63k8uFFQSebhBikQ3Xa0ob/s3867/shabby%20Roses%20Set.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2065" data-original-width="3867" height="341" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj1T1sgRUT2DlOp_rTHL5pXNKKlFNxPX7WiMusX-D_ljNJvjmXyI_Ld_tvbru_G0o-totOphlaoJ7is2jGhDpeZhStATbpe0vPxFzOgVSCWKLMw6WG6GfSwab1euTemUcRrb-09RpfaM0blTEJbu4DlgXl0bOBHoV4PQNUuCw63k8uFFQSebhBikQ3Xa0ob/w640-h341/shabby%20Roses%20Set.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div><br /></div>VINTAGE GIRL / ROSES<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjErPaw5ApMkK-Ai-7tGWquThvNkXFDapqvW9bVOXWUAi4nXfx6-hYW7etHq7chLXQ9qIuxSAucGsokON-FmUg9jS5eN_WxmhwV63CxjI-iIRS5q1BrAIZGKb7A9DE-jY6y46SYMDNHSpBxWFGKlcxQsnOjXyUr6R9CexZZJjY558ZJGYh4mlxLlp7le4p4/s3814/shabby%20girl%20jpg.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2032" data-original-width="3814" height="341" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjErPaw5ApMkK-Ai-7tGWquThvNkXFDapqvW9bVOXWUAi4nXfx6-hYW7etHq7chLXQ9qIuxSAucGsokON-FmUg9jS5eN_WxmhwV63CxjI-iIRS5q1BrAIZGKb7A9DE-jY6y46SYMDNHSpBxWFGKlcxQsnOjXyUr6R9CexZZJjY558ZJGYh4mlxLlp7le4p4/w640-h341/shabby%20girl%20jpg.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Maybe I have inspired you to rustle up some supplies from your stash, and begin your own.

Find a selection of Laces and Trims etc. and have a play with the</span></p><p><span style="font-family: trebuchet;">Colours, Positions and Design. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: trebuchet;">Next step is to hand tack down the Backing, Images and Laces. I find at times</span></p><p><span style="font-family: trebuchet;">the sewing machine is suitable but no gathering or tightness this way.

<div>
<span style="color: orange; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #e06666; font-size: medium;">Following through from the Video here are a few more hints and</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #e06666; font-size: medium;">notes that may be of assistance should you be wanting to learn </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #e06666; font-size: medium;">the most common and useful of SRE stitches. Typically it is used </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #e06666; font-size: medium;">as a fill stitch for petals, leaves, insects etc.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #e06666; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #e06666; font-size: medium;">The tutorial is based on a simple design using a Hand Dyed 7mm</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #e06666; font-size: medium;">Silk Ribbon.( <i>It may be difficult for some to purchase pure silk </i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #e06666; font-size: medium;"><i>ribbon, but it will reward you so much more than Satin Ribbon</i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #e06666; font-size: medium;"><i>with appearance, shaping and texture).</i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #e06666; font-size: medium;"><b><i>Vine is stem stitch 2 threads, Flowers and Leaves 7 mm Silk</i></b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #e06666; font-size: medium;"><i><b>Ribbon. </b>(Hand Dyed Silk gives the variance as each petal is</i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #e06666; font-size: medium;"><i>worked)</i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #e06666; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: medium;"><span><span style="color: #e06666;">More details are shown on </span><span style="color: #4c1130;"><a href="http://caroldaisy.blogspot.com.au/search/label/Stitches%20-%20Ribbon%20Stitch">Ribbon Stitch Tutorial</a> </span></span><span style="color: #e06666;">regarding the </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #e06666; font-size: medium;">shaping of the petals.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #e06666; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #e06666; font-size: medium;">You will see that I prefer to place a layer of pellon under my fabric.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #e06666; font-size: medium;">To me it makes a softer finish of the embroidery, and also if it</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #e06666; font-size: medium;">is a light texture fabric the view of the ribbon from one position to</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="color: #e06666;">another is hidden. So this being said keep a threaded needle available to stitch off the ends. Doing each one as you go also keeps </span><span style="color: #e06666;">your stitches from pulling if a ribbon end is snagged while </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="color: #e06666;">working. Touch up the ink markings with a w</span><span style="color: #e06666;">et a cotton bud if you have drawn the design with a water erasable pen.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #e06666; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #e06666; font-size: medium;">So once mastered, your question may be,what more can I create</span></div>

<span face=""trebuchet ms" , sans-serif" style="font-size: large;">embroidered item.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span face=""trebuchet ms" , sans-serif" style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span face=""trebuchet ms" , sans-serif" style="font-size: large;">Follow the link above to see how Christie made hers, the only main difference </span><span face=""trebuchet ms" , sans-serif" style="font-size: large;">with my effort is that the ribbon has to be longer to cover the Embroidered area.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span face=""trebuchet ms" , sans-serif" style="font-size: large;">Whatever length you need for the completed item</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span face=""trebuchet ms" , sans-serif" style="font-size: large;"> add half again </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span face=""trebuchet ms" , sans-serif" style="font-size: large;">eg. Finished length 42 cms ( 16.5 inches) </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span face=""trebuchet ms" , sans-serif" style="font-size: large;"> add 21 cms (8.5 inches) for the fold over and seams.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span face=""trebuchet ms" , sans-serif" style="font-size: large;">Length of Ribbon to start 63 cms (25 inches)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span face=""trebuchet ms" , sans-serif" style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span face=""trebuchet ms" , sans-serif" style="font-size: large;">For the ribbon lengths to be inserted in the hoop I </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span face=""trebuchet ms" , sans-serif" style="font-size: large;">tacked the lengths onto a piece of interfacing.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span face=""trebuchet ms" , sans-serif" style="font-size: large;">This is easily cut or torn off when completed and gives a base to stitch down the ribbons.</span></div>

<h2 style="text-align: center;"><span face=""trebuchet ms" , sans-serif" style="color: #a64d79; font-size: x-large;">Silk Ribbon Embroidered Cuff.</span></h2>
<span style="font-size: large;">Materials/ Notions:</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">1 Piece of Dupioni Silk - Length determined by wrist</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;"> measurement. </span><span style="font-size: large;">For my own 18 x 14 cms</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Lace 5 cms width so 9 cms was allowed for the fold and stitching to close over.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Lace Remnant with a pattern to enhance with the Silk Ribbon.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">( However Straight lace and freehand Silk Ribbon Embroidery can still apply).</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">1 Small Piece of Pellon. 5 x 18 cms.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">1 Small Piece of Stiffening such as Buckram (Not adhesive) to give the bracelet shape.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">4.5 x 16 cms ( Allowing for the side hem without bulk - cut later to shape.)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Silk Ribbon 7 mm. ( for this example approximately 3 metres)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Small Pearls - Centre and </span><span style="font-size: large;">Small 11/0 Gold Seed Beads.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Toggle Set or Bracelet Clasps for closure.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Sewing Thread, Beading Thread.</span><span style="font-size: large; text-align: center;">Chenille, Beading,</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large; text-align: center;"> Embroidery Needles.</span></div>
<br />
<span face=""trebuchet ms" , sans-serif" style="font-size: large;">Tack the Lace into position, I usually use a different colour thread, much easier to </span><span face=""trebuchet ms" , sans-serif" style="font-size: large;">see and pull out later.</span><br />
<span face=""trebuchet ms" , sans-serif" style="font-size: large;">Once you have completed the Embroidery, this should hold the lace in position. </span><br />
<span face=""trebuchet ms" , sans-serif" style="font-size: large;">I then proceeded to overlock the four sides as I know from experience how quickly </span><span face=""trebuchet ms" , sans-serif" style="font-size: large;">dupioni can fray.</span><br />

<span face=""trebuchet ms" , sans-serif" style="font-size: large;">On wrong side with loose tacking stitches position and</span><br />
<span face=""trebuchet ms" , sans-serif" style="font-size: large;">stitch the pellon into position.</span><br />
<span face=""trebuchet ms" , sans-serif" style="font-size: large;">This is a good base to stitch down the ribbons ends.</span><br />
<span face=""trebuchet ms" , sans-serif" style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span face=""trebuchet ms" , sans-serif" style="font-size: large;">Place the Fabric into an Embroidery Hoop and with 7 mm Ribbon I have worked </span><span face=""trebuchet ms" , sans-serif" style="font-size: large;">Ribbon Stitch petals into the lace.</span><br />
<span face=""trebuchet ms" , sans-serif" style="font-size: large;">( Naturally you can adapt the embroidery to </span><span face=""trebuchet ms" , sans-serif" style="font-size: large;">suit the lace underlay.)</span><br />
<span face=""trebuchet ms" , sans-serif" style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span face=""trebuchet ms" , sans-serif" style="font-size: large;">(My example is with beautifully soft variances </span><span face=""trebuchet ms" , sans-serif" style="font-size: large;">from Rose Pink to Light Olive.</span><br />
<span face=""trebuchet ms" , sans-serif" style="font-size: large;">Should you wish to use a solid colour you would have a </span><span face=""trebuchet ms" , sans-serif" style="font-size: large;">bold display of colour and would need to add a 2nd or </span><span face=""trebuchet ms" , sans-serif" style="font-size: large;">3 rd.to get the same effect. This is were the variances in </span><span face=""trebuchet ms" , sans-serif" style="font-size: large;">hand dyed ribbon is such an excellent option. </span><br />
<span face=""trebuchet ms" , sans-serif" style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span face=""trebuchet ms" , sans-serif" style="font-size: large;">The flowers are embroidered in Ribbon Stitch, a quite simple stitch for beginners, for the </span><span face=""trebuchet ms" , sans-serif" style="font-size: large;">Tutorial Link</span><br />

<span face=""trebuchet ms" , sans-serif" style="font-size: large;">P.S.

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span face=""trebuchet ms" , sans-serif" style="font-size: large;">Close over at both ends by folding the bare silk</span></div>

<span face=""trebuchet ms" , sans-serif" style="font-size: large;">back across the front as a double layer and machine stitch</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span face=""trebuchet ms" , sans-serif" style="font-size: large;"> I did iron over a 10 mm fold</span><span face=""trebuchet ms" , sans-serif" style="font-size: large;"> and that needs to </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span face=""trebuchet ms" , sans-serif" style="font-size: large;">be closest to the embroidery, so that once it is turned back out this will </span><span face=""trebuchet ms" , sans-serif" style="font-size: large;">become the </span><span face=""trebuchet ms" , sans-serif" style="font-size: large;"> seam to stitch the bracelet closed.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span face=""trebuchet ms" , sans-serif" style="font-size: large;">Machine stitch the ends on the wrong side. Turn right side out, press.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span face=""trebuchet ms" , sans-serif" style="font-size: large;">Before closing off the back, I used a heavy embroidery thread to</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span face=""trebuchet ms" , sans-serif" style="font-size: large;">add the toggles and extended them 5 mm ( need the length to thread the toggle through).</span></div>

<br /><span style="font-size: medium;">
Stepping up to the next level in SRE.<br />
<br />Once you have mastered the technique of SRE stitches and shaping these into flowers, leaves, insects, etc. now it is time to take a step up.<br />
<br />
Layering, textures, variances of colour, reflections, highlights all add a different effect and give dimension to your work.<br />
<br />
Get together an assortment of beads, sequins, metallic threads ( eg. Kreinik) glass and lucite flowers and leaves and see how it will change the effect of your work. Keep in mind Clear Beading </span></div><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><span style="font-size: medium;">Thread as an option for stitching down laces, braid etc. No need to change your thread constantly to match the item, it blends in well.</span></div><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><span style="font-size: medium;">( Obviously this will not work for a basic dark colour such as black, but with variances in shades will disguise well.)<br />
<br />
Crazy Patch Seam Embellishment is one example of this with the use of various stitches, Beads and Sequins.</span><br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<br /><span style="font-size: medium;">
Adding these type of elements can give your embroidery a more whimsical effect or increase the sequins and beading and instantly it becomes more glamourous.<br />

Let's admit it ladies we can all do with some BLING!!!!!</span></div><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><span style="font-size: medium;">Embellishment Packs are available from CarolDaisyCrafts Etsy Store. <a href="https://www.etsy.com/au/shop/CaroldaisyCrafts">https://www.etsy.com/au/shop/CaroldaisyCrafts</a><br />

<div class="western" style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="font-size: small;">transfer the design on the fabric, using a light
box or by taping the pattern to a sunny</span></div>
<div class="western" style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;">

<div class="western" style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="font-size: small;">It is best in the case of the Loop Flower to
complete your other work first as it gets</span></div>
<div class="western" style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="font-size: small;">difficult working around the loops of ribbon.
First step, work the small daisy's in the</span></div>
<div class="western" style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="font-size: small;">gold ribbon in Ribbon Stitch, allowing a small
circle in the centre and work around </span>
</div>
<div class="western" style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="font-size: small;">this. When completed stitch on a bronze bead. </span></div>
<div class="western" style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Next step, with 2 strands Cream Thread work the Lazy Daisy Leaves. </span></div>
<div class="western" style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="font-size: small;">The Fly Stitch
Leaves are next with 2 strands Variegated Green Thread. </span></div>
<div class="western" style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Starting from the top make a
small Fly Stitch as in Stitch Instructions and repeat this</span></div>
<div class="western" style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="font-size: small;">increasing the size as you go to
shape the leaf, complete the stem with Stem Stitch.</span></div>
<div class="western" style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<br /></div>
<div class="western" style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Using the Yellow or Cream 7 mm. Ribbon, make
the Buds, and add a Y stitch in Green</span></div>
<div class="western" style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Variegated Thread and Stem Stitch the branch.
Once you have completed all the buds.</span></div>
<div class="western" style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Make small French Knots scattered ( <i>does
not have to be exact to the pattern</i>)</span></div>
<div class="western" style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="font-size: small;">with 1 Thread of the Bronze Metallic.</span></div>
<div class="western" style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<br /></div>
<div class="western" style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Loop Flower: Take a 25 – 30 cm piece of the
Yellow or Cream Ribbon, Use option 1</span></div>
<div class="western" style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="font-size: small;">for threading ( <i>this is the most secure way )</i><span style="font-style: normal;">.
Work around the inner circle. The ribbon </span></span>
</div>
<div class="western" style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="font-size: small;">will be pulled through outside the circle and
with eg. a rod, pencil or chopped sticks,</span></div>
<div class="western" style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="font-size: small;">wrap the ribbon under and over the rod and
back into the material inside the circle. Pull</span></div>

while you make your next stitch with another</span></div>
<div class="western" style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="font-size: small;">rod and then pull out the first. This stops
the ribbon from pulling through and shortening the</span></div>
<div class="western" style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="font-size: small;">first stitch. Continue in the way until you
have made 6 Petals. At the back of your work</span></div>
<div class="western" style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="font-size: small;">take the needle through the wadding and stitch
off. Complete all Loop Flowers then add</span></div>

pearl for the yellow flowers. If you need</span><span style="font-size: small;"> </span><br />

<span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-size: small;"><i>( I have chosen to embroider this
design onto a silk bag</i></span><span style="font-size: small;"> </span><span style="font-size: small;"><i>but
you may choose to use it</i></span></span></div>
<div align="LEFT" class="western" style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><i>in other ways. For eg. to decorate the lid
of a jewellery box, a pocket or a small pillow.)</i></span></div>

<div align="LEFT" class="western" style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-style: normal;">Stitches Used:
Whipped Chain, Ribbon Stitch and French Knots.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-style: normal;">Ribbon: 7 mm Silk Ribbon x 2 Metres ( Hand Dyed will give a variance of colours through</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-style: normal;">the flower as you work. Any colour you would like Red, Oranges, Pinks etc.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-style: normal;"> 7 mm Silk Ribbon Green for leaves .7 mt. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-style: normal;">Threads: .5 Mt. of 2 Different tones of Green embroidery cotton.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-style: normal;"> .5 Mt. Metallic to highlight French Knot Centres.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-style: normal;">Seed Beads - gold for Centres. Butterfly charm.</span></span></div>

<div align="LEFT" class="western" style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Piece of Fabric 20 cm x 60 cm. Finished size: 17 cms x
25 cms. </span>

<br /></div>
<div align="LEFT" class="western" style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><b>Instructions: </b>Pre-wash the ribbons, then
iron when dry on a silk setting before you begin.</span></div>
<div align="LEFT" class="western" style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Fold the piece of fabric in half and position
the transfer as illustrated centred and 6cm</span></div>
<div align="LEFT" class="western" style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="font-size: small;">from the base fold. At this point I find it is
easier to roll up the material which will be</span></div>
<div align="LEFT" class="western" style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="font-size: small;">the back of the bag and pin this down, so as not
to get it caught up while you are working.</span></div>
<div align="LEFT" class="western" style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Transfer the design onto material with water
erasable pen. This can be done using</span></div>
<div align="LEFT" class="western" style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="font-size: small;">a light box or by taping the design up to a well
lit window and holding the fabric over it.</span></div>
<div align="LEFT" class="western" style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Tack a piece of wadding onto the back of the
design, this is needed to stitch your ribbon</span></div>
<div align="LEFT" class="western" style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="font-size: small;">down and helps with your embroidery in general.
It is best that you get into a routine of</span></div>
<div align="LEFT" class="western" style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="font-size: small;">stitching down the ribbons at the start and
finish immediately, if not, it is easy to snag while </span>
</div>
<div align="LEFT" class="western" style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="font-size: small;">you are working and all your good work can be

distance of just under one petal size between them.</span></div>
<div align="LEFT" class="western" style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><b>Second Layer</b>, position these Ribbon Stitches
over this gap, working clockwise around the</span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;"><b>Centres</b>: Fill the centre with French Knots
embroidered with 1 thread of Lighter Green and</span></div>
<div align="LEFT" class="western" style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="font-size: small;">1 thread of Gold, combined ( give it a few
twists to keep them together). Should you have </span>

Next step is to stitch the gold beads around</span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;">the french knots, you may have to take some over
