I love Lillies (bet you can't guess where my daughter got her name from :P ) but I think my favourite is still the White Lily :D

Once again Susan I find myself looking through the pictures thinking "so that's the flowers they meant!" I often profess interest and understanding when people are talking about their flowers and don't actually have a clue which ones they mean unless they physically point them out to me! Lovely pictures, and lovely charts too!

Thanks KK, I've really enjoyed choosing my favourite images and charts for this bingo - and a couple of the photographs are actually my own (but only a few, I really must start using my camera more often again this year).

Just wanted to say 'Thank you' for these beautiful flower links.
I had meant to join the bingo for this and completely forgot to do it in time :oops: but I'm really enjoying the pictures and the chart links.

I could only manage to find charts for two of the four flowers tonight (so do let me know if any of you find any others).

Gerbera:

One of my favourite flowers - they make me smile :D

You may recognise the photo!!

Image

And DMC have very kindly provided us with a free chart here!


Magnolia:

Image

Scroll down a bit here to find the magnolia chart.


Marigold:

Image

No chart :(


Scabious:

Isn't it such a horrible name - which is a shame because it is actually a beautiful delicate flower.

Image

That's it for tonight, no chart for scabious either, I'm afraid.

Managed better tonight, with charts for three out of the four flowers :D :D

Buddleia:

Sometimes known as the Butterfly Bush as they all seem to love it.

Image

Another less well known buddleia is the one I've got in my garden. For a few weeks it's fantastic, but then the flowers turn brown and it doesn't look so good for the rest of the year.

Image

No chart for buddleia - but you did get two photos :lol: :lol:


Iris:

Image

And we have a link from CrossStitchPro - thanks Lori :wub:


Lily:

Image

and a chart here.


Tulip:

Image

The chart for the tulip is from the Caron web site and includes a tutorial on using variegated floss.
