Continuing
with my counted stitch challenge, here is a new version of small rose.
For my second version of the design I simply replaced each ‘cross stitch’ with two small long stiches. Tbe Gobelin stitch is really easy to
do, and results in a sort of flat embroidery which is pleasant to touch and
resembles weaving.
The small
rose pattern is available as a free instant download on my website, see link
below.
I would
like to challenge you to also try out different techniques and styles of
embroidery, needlework or other crafts that can be worked from counted
patterns. The possibilities are endless, and lot’s of fun.
Be sure to tag your
work with #smallrosechallenge or
#rolanddesigns
The rose was stitched with 2 threads over two threads
on 28 ct linen.
