On day two of Hanabatake, I moved onto flower 4. This one was a little easier to stitch. It is very similar to flower 5 and the center of the flower is stitched in a technique that I learned in Hana and my phase 1 Japanese bead embroidery piece.

There are three of these flowers and they're stitched in the same manner, except for the one in the animation above. Instead of a half circle, it has a full one. I noticed as well that the proportions of the drawn lines didn't match what the flower should look like once it was beaded. So I ended up adjusting the petal outline.
An overview of the piece.

There's always a bit of tweaking involved in these sort of pieces!

Gosh I’ve missed a lot with my lack of blog reading! You have probably guessed I’m going backwards 😊 this will be beautiful once completed.
ReplyDeleteAnother pretty flower! But looking at the fabric, there is so much more prettiness to come.
