Blooming tree

The last theme for the Fibre Fever ATC swap was trees. I made this ATC for Kim in the USA. I cut the tree and grass without a pattern and was very pleased with the result. The stitches I used are:
  • whipped backstitch for the tree
  • straight stitches for the grass
  • colonial knots for the blossom
  • a combo of straight stitch, detached chain stitch and colonial knots for the flowers
  • at the edge I couched some knitting yarn
All threads are stranded floss.
