blue vine embroidery


This embroidery is one of my favorites! It is, in my opinion, cute and very fun to complete. I also prefer it because it is difficult to mess up with, as everything looks completely unsymmetrical and no area is exactly the same.

Every single leaf and vine is embroidered with a split stitch (that is, except the small dots, which are french knots). 

I started this embroidery with the light blue vine in the middle, I thought it would stand alone. (Although to do so would be wasting a large amount of fabric!) However, I am glad I expanded it! :)

 This is a perfect project to embroider while watching a movie or doing before bed. It looks amazing in a circle hoop or frame, and would look adorable as a circle pillow (although, in my experience, circle pillow are extremely hard and end up looking rather squished).

Also, I wish that I would have been a bit more creative with the colors. Even colors that are not very daring (such as red, orange, and yellow) might have added interest which this lacks. Overall, though, I am delighted with the result!
