Did you ever see all the free vote embroideries I posted?
Bee Creative Free Embroidery!
Here's another bee embroidery. I took this picture in a patch of forget-me-knots since that is what the flowers are based on.
I used the same colors of DMC threads as last month's post except for the blue. I decided the flowers were too pale so I switched to DMC 813. The stitches are the same except for the bee. I used straight stitches for the body, french knots for the eyes, and back stitch for the wings.
The flowers are not on the pattern since they are just simple lazy daisy and french knots. I used 2 strands DMC 813 to make the forget me not flowers. The centers are 2 strands of DMC 745 yellow. I used 2 strands and did 3 wraps. The leavers are DMC 704 green. I used 2 strands to make the lazy daisy stitches.
The x's and knots are 2 strands of the blue and yellow.
The border is back stitch in black wrapped with the green.
That's it, hope you like these quick little designs. BTW, I drew these by hand, even the words. So if you prefer switch out your own printing for mine.
Here's the pattern:
