Today I have two details to feature the first is a bullion rose spray. The other is a seam embellishment over rick rack.
The bullion rose spray is worked in wool. Here are directions on how to make a bullion rose from the everything sewing website. Classic stitches also has directions for a bullion rose.
The foliage is worked in wool using detached chain and sprinkled with clear seed beads.
The rick rack was couched down using zig zag chain worked in DMC 8 pearl cotton. On one side I placed a seed bead and on the other I worked three straight stitches topped with a seed bead.
