Valerie Pfeiffer 'Freesia Posy'

Post by Nicola Main »

This is what we're aiming for, isn't it beautiful?

I started this on Tuesday night and this is how far I've got so far. Lovely design, a lot of different colours and many half and quarter stitches but that's OK I love doing them!

So pretty :applesauce: you'll get lots of detail using fractional stitches. Perfect for those freesias :whoop:

:applesauce: What a realistic bouquet of Fresias that is :wub: it and I :wub: your pretty start too. One thing for sure half and quarter stitches are so much easier on evenweave aren't they. A beautiful start to a gorgeous design. :applesauce: :applesauce:

Have never used evenweave before but yes they would be much easier. I'm doing my freesias on aida ;)

That's a beautiful project and a great start! I hate fractional stitches but they will certainly make this project look wonderful.
