A little design of my own that I’ve finished as a pillow stuffed with chamomile blossoms for a sweet scent. Stitched using all HDF supplies: 35 ct Peach Butter linen, Primitive Black, Legacy Blue, BeBopped, Black Cherry, Examplar Black Iris, Examplar Miligrubs, Bock, Bole, Castory, and Ginger. A note on the skin tone – for the bottom stitch I used Bole one-over-two and for the top stitch I used it two-over-two. It kept the skin from looking too intensely colored. One-over-one for both top and bottom stitch made her look like she had some unpleasant skin condition. LOL. Must ask Vikki’s advice regarding skin tones, but I thought this turned out well. A bit of vintage lace and some deep purple twill-like finishing fabric that matched the Examplar Black Iris finish it off.
