Belfast 32 count linen in Antique White, DMC floss, Mill Hill Petite beads and Kreinik Silver Cord. Hand made twisted cord and tassel.
What was your inspiration?
Saw this and was persuaded to stitch it for my niece... it's given like a horseshoe is, after the ceremony.
What are you most proud of?
Finishing it in time... nothing like a bit of pressure! I got the colours right too, yay. There are 260+ tiny beads on this!
What advice would you give someone starting this project?
Sweetheart Tree patterns look deceptively simple, but boy does Sandie pack a heap of detail in a small space! Not for the beginner but don't let that put you off making this for a special bride and groom.
