While away the hours with a mindfulness-inducing Wildflower Hoop The traditional craft of embroidery is back on trend, and Amanda Walker’s nature-themed wall art brings it right up to date. The simple wildflower design is easy to replicate and features basic stitches worked on ivory fabric for a fresh spring look. The thread shades used for this project are given in the instructions, but can also be substituted with your favourite colour palette.
Download and print the template. Cut a square of linen fabric large enough to fit a 15cm embroidery hoop. Trace the design onto the linen, either directly or using carbon paper. Secure the square in the hoop, pulling the fabric firmly so it is taut.
Snip a length of green thread, separate three strands and pass onto your needle. Start with the stem of the cow parsley, which is worked with a back stitch
