Flower scarf<br />
Anne Mende<br />
This flower design is sewn onto a piece of felt that is then sewn onto a scarf or shawl. Use<br />
1 strand of tapestry wool for everything. Start with the dark green foliage with backstitch. For the<br />
leaves, make three stitches over each other to create a thick texture. Then, add the white lazy<br />
daisy flowers. Proceed to stitch the two big flowers from the centre outwards, beginning with<br />
satin stitch in the circle. Follow the chart for colour and stitch usage. Add the remaining leaves<br />
after stitching the flowers so that you can fill out the space evenly.<br />
