Birthday card

On this birthday card I stitched a floral spray in perle 5 on felt. I used oyster stitch, feather stitch, fly stitch, detached chain stitch and French knots.

  3. Beautiful stitching. The beads are striking, I don't think I have ever seen BEADS with letters on. Like Margaret I thought they were buttons.

    1. Thanks, Queenie. I have a few different letter bead sets, they are fun to use from time to time. I mostly find them at the beads for jewellery.

  4. Beautiful!! I love how you've not used the usual green at all for the stems. Very different,but looks great!!

    1. Thanks, Deepa. The normal green didn't work with the red background, so I just played with the colours I had until I found the right match.

  5. Love the letters! Your stitching is very striking, and a lovely design! Oooooh! I feel the urge to embroider coming on me! I love chain stitches, and feather stitches but I need to learn Oyster stitch. I'm off to look that one up!
    Thank you, Annet, for the lovely inspiration!
