Some years ago, I was asked to teach an embroidery stitch sampler class. I didn’t want to design your stock-standard sampler, so this is what I created: the Jardin de Fleurs cushions. There are about 30 different stitches on this design, and extensive step-by-step instructions for all of them are included with the pattern.<\/p>\n

As well as learning different stitches, I wanted my students to experience a range of different types of threads, so I used wool, linen, cotton pearl, stranded cotton, overdyed threads, and coton a broder. You can use the specified threads, or what you have in your stash. Both colourways are included in the pattern. I worked my cushions on a lovely natural coloured cotton\/linen blend fabric, but you could also use linen or cotton fabric. The finished cushions measure 30 x 50cm or 12 x 20 inches.<\/p>\n

There are a lot of stitches on this design, and I would say it is best suited to someone who already has some confidence with embroidery. A very ambitious beginner might be ok with it, especially if they have the support and encouragement of experienced stitchers to cheer them on.<\/p>\n

I’ve restocked the Jardin de Fleurs cushion patterns today. You can find them on my website at https:\/\/www.vettycreations.com.au\/jardindefleurs.html<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<\/p>\n
