Reference: Twelve Dozen Stitches in Twelve Months
It has been pretty cold these last few days, and I'm ready for Spring to be here! The grass is all brown now, and there are no flowers. So, when this little daisy popped into my head...it was surely a welcome thought! And, opened a flood gate of floral ideas!! So, we will be walking through the gardens of my mind for the next few stitches.
The assembly of this stitch is very simple...and can be easily followed along with just the chart I think. The colors chosen were very traditional yellow and green (perle cotton #5)...with a yellow crystal for the beaded center variety...but I thought white with brown or black in the center would be good. Of course, would not have photographed very well on the white fabric I'm working from...so the yellow it is!

Love the Daisys.
Kathy, you are doing an amazing job! Thank you for sharing all your hard work.
I haven't had the chance to use them yet, but I did print one set out on copy paper and put a piece of contact paper on the front to make it more sturdy. Cut it out and then punched the holes. It seems like it should work fine that way.
This is so great. I love learning new stitches. Thank you so much for all the time you are putting into this project.
I wish the clickable links on the pictures would take us to a bigger picture for closeup detail.
Thanks.
One of my favorites of all the ones you've done so far.
