The entire area will use 3 Wildflowers by Caron (a combination of 037, 152, and 158) with DMC Cotton Perle #5 (823) couched on with DMC floss (823). The thread is thin enough to allow the canvas to show though.

“Sun Flower” is a painted canvas selected at Fireside Stitchery in Frazer, PA for a David McCaskill workshop. I thought it was a sun until David said it was a flower! Thus, it is named “Sun Flower”.
Looking forward to blogging about needlepoint
