Aurora Borealis, Pattern 24

Pattern 24 in the creme row is Reversed Fans and flowers with beads.  A single strand of silk created the fanned flower shapes which are like half eyelets.  Then straight stitches and detached chain leaves are worked for stems.  Diagonal tent stiches are by the clear pink lined beads that become the flowers.

Will the beautiful creation ultimately be round?

This just keeps getting better and better. Marnie's pieces are the only samplers I have ever itched to stitch.

Yes, it is a round design.
