Perfect for embroidery, add some seed stitches and fill the flowers with colour, ideal for beginners. The scent of the petunias in my garden is something I look forward to each summer. I wanted to capture their vibrancy in a print so I could incorporate their beauty in my textile projects and enjoy them all year round. This gentle blossom pink design will bring joy to your projects. Some of the images show a panel that I added some embroidery to, I then used half the panel to make up a drawstring bag. I used a simple seed stitch in a fine embroidery thread, the flowers bloom beautifully with a little colour. Choose your favourite colours and you have an easy project to work on in the evenings. There's a free tutorial to make the drawstring bag here. This fabric panel is ideal for handmade projects, such as cushions and bags, or combine with other fabrics and create an original quilt or cushion cover.
