Apple Blossoms 2-Sided Embroidery PDF Instructions
Apple Blossoms 2-Sided Embroidery PDF Instructions
$20.71 USD
The Apple Blossoms are a 2-sided hand embroidery technique.
There are 21 pages of step-by-step diagrams and detailed instructions on how to work each stitch which are reversible so that the back looks the same as the front.
Stitches include: Satin stitch, padded satin stitch, stem stitch, French knots and long and short stitch.
The design can be worked on a taffeta fabric using DMC No. 8 Perle cotton thread or worked on silk fabric with Au Ver a Soie silk threads (I recommend to reduce the design size by 50% as the silk thread is finer than than the Perle cotton).

Needles – Size 7 Crewel Embroidery
The size 7 crewel embroidery needle is used in my 2-Sided Apple Blossoms and Blossom Branch kits.
The kits come with two needles but you may want to purchase more in case you mislay your needle.
The needle has a long eye for easier threading, a slender shaft and a sharp point to the needle so that the stitches can be worked close together and there is more control for the placement of the stitches.
