Description
This cactus is decorated with cheerful multi-coloured fairy lights – not just for Christmas – lovely at any time of the year at all! Indeed this design would make a lovely Valentine stitchery too, perhaps with red or pink fairy lights rather than the vibrant multi-coloured ones in this version.
This hoop uses just a few stitches – back stitch, French knots and satin stitch – all the cactus “spines” are French knots so it’s a good way to practise this stitch. The cactus and pot are appliqued and then the embroidery is worked over the top.
Shown mounted in 7” hoop.
Please note this listing is for a pattern to make your own cactus hoop and not for the finished article. This is a digital pattern and you will receive a download link as soon as your order is complete.
