Cornflower Bouquet
The story of creating “Cornflower Bouquet” — from inspiration drawn from cornflowers and the first idea to the final stitches and the finished piece.
“Cornflower Bouquet” begins with inspiration drawn from cornflowers. The idea gradually takes shape through searching for the right direction, selecting threads, a base and a cabochon, then creating an embroidery sketch and marking its main elements.
