Petals completed, leaves added it was time for the centre of the flowers. The pattern called for French knots...well it it can call all it likes I was not feeling it. So time for a bit of deliberate uniqueness. No knots, nice soothing cross stitches .
It should be time for the back-stitch, not my favourite thing to do it is still the thing that lifts these designs and gives definition to the flowers.
There was a but implied in that last sentence and that relates to the title of my post as there are a host of ninjas lurking in this pattern. Tweeding ninjas each and every one.
Blending thread for a stitch here and there is a tad frustrating, I have been here before and am contemplating the same solution. Start another Ed so that I can do the stitch here and there on this one and then move onto the new Ed
Looking at the pattern book today and trying to decide which one I want to start next. Also if I want something small again or go for one of the bigger patterns and of course do I have a bit for fabric a suitable size.

I am just imagining a production line of little Eds!
This is going to be so cute when you add the backstitching!
