More embroidered flowers using the Pekinese Stitch

I just love this stitch!  We have been having rain for two days already, due to the tropical storm over Cuba right now. It comes in rain bands, and it will be all or nothing. This morning we had one, so it was a good time to sew and drink coffee.

I had made the blue flower yesterday, but this morning I added the yellow french knots for the center.

Then I decided to do some holiday inspired flowers, so the 4th of July, Halloween, and Christmas colored ones were created.

This was so much fun!!! Hope you enjoy my cute flowers.

Xoxo- Julie

I knew there was something extra special about you....you're a coffee drinker. Me, too.

I know nothing about needlework but sure do admire yours.

No need to visit my blog, haven't published anything since May 30. That's awful.

Never heard of this stitch before, it's so lovely. Hope you are having a fun Summer with your grands, they must be getting so big now, what about a new photo for us to see? Hugs to you lovely friend.

Hi Julie *hugs*
Now isn't that just a sweet and interesting flower. I hadn't heard a stitching called that. You have done a great job with it...so clever you are. I like the way you've finished them all different. You can for sure use them in so many different ways.

I hope that darn storm hasn't come up too close to you....keep well..
