Mindful May Day 29 - Flower Embroidery

Day 29 of Mindful May Day 29 and only two days left. I cannot believe we are here already. If you are just finding the challenge today, welcome! The playlist has everything, come join in, it docent have to be May when you do it, its not about the month its about making some creative time for you. Today we are adding some beautiful yellow flowers with French knot centres in purple and yellow bullion knot petals. Bullion knots are the same wrapping principle as a French knot that we learned, but instead of a single wrap you keep going, building up a little coil of thread that sits on the fabric like the most perfect tiny stitch. It sounds fiddly but once it clicks it clicks. In this video: How to work a bullion knot — the same wrapping principle as a French knot taken one step further Creating yellow flowers with bullion knot centres in purple for a beautiful contrasting finish Another relaxed 30-minute stitch-along at your own pace Learning a brand new stitch on Day 29. After everything we have covered this month — long and short stitch, satin stitch, lazy daisy, French knots, whip stitch, back stitch, leaf stitch — here we are right at the end adding one more to your collection. By the time Mindful May is over you are going to have such an incredible toolkit of stitches and skills. Missed any earlier days?
