Ramblin' Rose
With the dark days of winter finally behind us, it's time to fling open the windows and trade dusty decorations for the vibrant explosion of color blooming outside! This month's Member Make project is all about unleashing your inner flower power with a project as bold and beautiful as its namesake – Cardstock Wild Roses and Buds! While we've featured these lovely flowers on the site before, this take promises a fresh twist you won't want to miss.
Festive with a kick, Get a kick out of -
Intermediate (a lot of little details, though optional). Stitches used: blanket, whip, straight, detached chain stitch. We made a little blanket, baskets, and bridle with mini pom poms to adorn this lil donkey as well. This donkey has a mane and tail made out of embroidery floss. Donkeys come in all colors, we used a heathered oat color and added pops of color with the details. The made can take a while to individually stitch each strand on, but it is so worth it once you get it trimmed down and see the final result. Tip: reinforce you inner seams with a dot or two of tacky glue. < This comes with experience, the lighter felt colors sometimes aren't as dense as others and stitches can pull through when you are like 90% done. Adding tacky glue at the inner seams will help reinforce them, just in case!
