Little flower embroidery

For Ella`s birthday I bought a party dress

at Boden.

I think it`s a lovely, Alice in Wonderland like, dress without

being exactly like Alice.

And also a practical solution because I didn`t have time to make an Alice dress.

Luckily Ella loved the dress

so the dress was a time saver.

Because it`s a bit cold with short sleeves

I decided to embroider flowers 

on a cardigan she already has

to make it matching.

These flowers are simple but a wonderful addition to a cardigan.

I`m already looking for other cardigans

to beautify.

This is how it`s done.

Start with  a lazy daisy stitch.

Make a square,

fill up the open spaces.

Make a french knot in the middle.

Thread around the needle four times.

Done with your first flower

just a few more to go.
