The charming 'Myosotis' KIT features enchanting, clear blue petals of dainty forget-me-not flowers, captured within an ornate frame of golden stitches and glittering beads.
.
Based on an illustration from a 19th century book printed onto linen, silk ribbons, stranded cotton and beads are used to add texture and dimension, bringing the flowers and foliage to life.
Regarded in Victorian times as a symbol of remembrance and true love, forget-me-nots remain a garden favourite with their pretty colour and ability to prolifically self-seed.
This beautiful kit featured in issue #119 of Inspirations Magazine is now available from the
Inspirations website.
.
This latest issue is filled with a selection of other stunning projects! "Become immersed in beautiful florals in a range of dimensions and techniques, from exquisite silk ribbon embroidery and raised techniques to lace-like deruta sfilato and detailed surface stitching, utilising a kaleidoscope palette of threads."
