I transferred the pattern by placing the fabric over the top of the printed pattern to trace with<br />
a fabric pen. You can use a lightbox or window if the fabric is too thick to see through. For all<br />
leaves, berries and petals, use 6 strands of thread. Each stem and french knot uses 3 strands of<br />
thread (3 turns of the needle).<br />
