Rose Motif




I really think my silk ribbon embroidery has been improving. I would like to try a less dense/compact motif- so hopefully in the future.

I followed the curve of the lace for this motif. It wasn't supposed to be so dense but it ended up having a mind of its own! ;) In the end the lace is mostly covered, which is a shame because it is beautiful, but I am pleased with how it looks. I still have to dye the jacobean style venetian rose and I added more accent flowers and will post pics tomorrow or later this evening.

    Very pretty Lillian, your SR roses are beautiful and look as though they are real. The blocks you have posted are really wonderful, I like the color combo and it will be fun to see them all together.

    I agree your SRE is getting better and better! I love what you've done! I don't think it's too dense but then I like dense. LOL And you can still see the lace underneath, I think it's perfect. Glad you like the lace!
