I have gotten Miss Iris set up to begin.
This is the drawing of Miss Iris.
This is the image I found online. I had to purchase new purple embroidery floss just for this flower. The purples I have were not very close to the purple in the picture or in my mind. I had a hard time at the store selecting the purple floss. There are not very many different purples to choose from. It is very important that I do Miss Iris the best that I possibly can because the iris is my husbands favorite flower. He is watching to see how she is coming along.
This is where I am in the process right now.

The changing of the flower blocks! So fun to see who is up next... bright eyed Miss Iris! Thanks for linking up to Slow Sunday Stitching!
ReplyDeleteI have a special spot in my heart for irises. They were my mom's favorite flower ... And they always bloomed around Mothers Day. So when we were growing up, my sister and I would make breakfast in bed for our mom and include a bouquet of purple irises.
ReplyDeleteThese are just wonderful! Miss Iris is beautiful. I wonder are you designing these? They are spectacular!
ReplyDeleteHow wonderful to have the ability to design your embroidery blocks.
