About this Witch Hat Spider with Moon Phases and Botanical Wildflowers embroidery pattern
Witch Hat Spider with Moon Phases and Botanical Wildflowers brings celestial and botanical details into a hand-embroidery composition. Study the colored design and outline together before choosing which shapes to shade, outline or simplify. The supplied guide identifies these motifs: Central witch-hat spider; multiple crescent/full-moon phase motifs; mirrored pale botanical sprays with grain-like stems, clustered flowers, lavender sprigs, buds and small star/dot accents.
The colored image is a design reference. Thread, fabric and your stitch choices will affect the finished result. Preserve the open spaces around the smaller motifs and test difficult fills on a spare piece of fabric before stitching the main design.
