I've mentioned before that I've been working on a series of big floral designs, all inspired by wonderful Mexican folk art motifs and colours. In the end there were 9 designs, and here are a couple of them. Like the previous design in this series that I posted on the 4th of June, these are REALLY BIG designs! They're each 6 x 10 inches, each of them has over 50,000 stitches, and each of them took me nearly 3 hours to stitch out. It's not just the large number of stitches that makes them take so long – there are an awful lot of colour changes in there. There are 53 different colours in the largest
Two more Mexican-inspired pots
When I posted the earlier Mexican design, someone commented on the number of different flowers there were in it. Well, I've been doing some counting, and in the 9 Mexican designs all together there are 70 different flowers. One or two of them are rather similar, but for the most part they ARE different flowers. So now you know what I've been doing for the past 2 months – inventing flowers!
Hello Mia,these bouquets are lovely, a real pleasure for the eyes!
