I finished the stitching on another of the Butterfly Garden embroidery pattern motifs.
You may remember that I previously shared this project from the same pattern set:
Now I have completed the other one.
Here is the list of stitches I used. To give the butterfly wings some dimension and variety, I used four different stitches. Chain Stitch, Double Knot Stitch, Stem Stitch, and Straight Stitch. The decorative parts of his wings are Running Stitch, Satin Stitch and Straight Stitch. His antennae are Pistil Stitch:
The raspberry colored circular flowers are Spider Web Filling Stitch with French Knot centers. The stem is Double Knot Stitch. The rest of the raspberry colored flowers are Lazy Daisy Stitch. The pink flowers are Straight Stitch petals and Stem Stitch Stems.
For the large green frond I used rows of Straight Stitch for the wide base and then Stem Stitch for the narrow curling top. The blue flower is Stem Stitch Stem, Fish Bone Stitch leaves and French Knot berries:
The color palette is very different. Here are the floss colors and numbers.
