Celebrating pollinators and the magic of nature, Portland artist Rebecca Ringquist’s floral themed embroidery sampler bursts with vibrant hues and is adorned with beautiful butterflies. She works hers up using just a handful of stitches but in an array of colors that create a highly detailed and stunning bouquet. Once your embroidery is complete, Rebecca shares how to finish using a self-binding edge so that your completed project resembles a miniature quilt. Let your imagination soar as you bring nature's beauty to life, one stitch at a time.

? I really enjoyed this. I've almost finished. Just the border and finishing to do. I wish I'd watched b4 I stitched as I used a thin muslin on the back which isn't too attractive plus I have a very, very messy back so going to get another piece of fabric to cover and use that. I wish I could work out how to get the entire butterfly area completely covered like Rebecca has shown. Mine is never that perfickly tidy (but tidy is not something that is standard in me!).
