This is my latest project. I love daisies – they are such cheery flowers! I feel they smile at you. It is little wonder then that they attract pollinators such as the Monarch butterfly here.
The Monarch butterflies are one of the most commonly found butterflies. I love the play of browns and yellows on their wings.
I have attempted to do raised embroidery here. The petals and the leaves are padded with multiple layers of thread. The butterflies upper wing is detached – it was worked on another piece of cloth with a wire framing the edges, and then cut and placed here.
The other flower worked here is Ruby grass. I felt it brought a sort of wild flower feel to the embroidery rather than an ornamental bouquet one.
This project took me almost two months to complete. It was challenging, but immensely satisfying. Do take a look at a couple more photos below.
