Split flower design.



I can't resist a challenge when I see one. I thought a split flower would not work, so I had a go at proving myself wrong. This one looks not bad at all, I think.
I changed the colour of the bars, thought that would look better in this case. It fits a 4x4 hoop and has 4834 stitches.

Thank you. The idea was not mine, someone asked if there were applique split designs available.

Yes, I am. I don't know if Yoriko would love more. If not, I'll let you know.

I have noticed that Martine, who does not let the grass grow under her feet, already has this design to purchase on 'My Garden' website.

Yes, I mentioned that below, but it always gets lost that way.

It turned out great! Thanks for taking the challenge, I am on my way to get it from the website....sorry I did not reply sooner, had to go to a funeral, my cousin passed away earlier this week, suffering from pancreatic cancer.

I am sorry to hear that you lost a cousin and of course attending his funeral came first.
Glad you like the flower.

Love the flowering creativity! I like this because of the overlapping petals, with the largest petal at the bottom, it looks more dimensional; the name is recessed a little farther back. You knocked that challenge out of the park. :-}

Your split flower looks great. One day would love to learn how to digitize designs. Happy Stitching

Thank you. Digitising is not that difficult, but it is very addictive.

Might be something to do once I retire. Have to wait 10 + years. Will give me time to think on it and check out all the different software also. Hugs Brenda Lea

I LOVE it. You do such good work. I know the flower center bothered you, and by using a violet you solved that problem wonderfully!

Thank you, and yes, that was exactly why I chose a violet.
