Flower & Dragonfly Blackwork
BLACKWORK PATTERN DESIGNED BY Lesley Teare Designs
A dragonfly hovers above a lotus flower.
The flower is designed in Lesley Teare's signature mix of Blackwork and cross stitch motifs, with exquisite detail.
The whole motif is outlined, with different areas filled with tiny blackwork motifs, all different, some in combination with cross stitch. The density of the various patterns contrast with each other, providing characteristic depth.
The golden heart of the flower, as well as the tiny blue dragonfly stand out in contrast with the black and white flower worked in blackwork. The dragonfly's body is of metallic blue and its wings are beautifully detailed, with honeycomb effect. Flowing cross stitch arabesques of golden thread add a touch of luxury to the design.
The pattern is the perfect size for turning into a cushion. there are 3 matching pieces in the series, why not stitch them all?
All stitches are full cross stitches or backstitch.
