Foxgloves in Silk Ribbon

 




This ribbon has varying shades from soft pink to a crisp

white. Leaves are in 7 mm. Sullivans Moss. 

Because of the loose nature of this stitch, you will require

approx. 60 cm. of  Silk Ribbon for each completed flower.

I feel it is worth it though, don't you.

Step 1:   Embroidery thread to match the Green Ribbon,

work a row of Stem Stitches for the stalk  approx. 7 cms.

Step 2:  With the 7 mm. Pink Ribbon I have made each flower

 head with a very loose French Knot taking the needle back

 through the ribbon at the base. Taper the flower heads, starting

 with 4 at the base, then 3, thin out at the tip for the new buds.

Step 3:  I have added Fly Stitches in the green thread, 

around the new buds to the stalk.



Step 4: Add French Knots (3 wraps ) in Kreinik Metallic Thread

 in each flower head. ( Leave the smaller bud knots )

Step 5:   Leaves in Ribbon Stitch.
