Playing with Beads
«

I love the look of beads on embroidered projects, so I thought I'd try my hand at it. Sadly, I went a little crazy and beaded these flowers like crazy. The pattern was a free hand draw that I did, and I ended up framing it in the cute oval hoop. Hopefully I can exercise some restraint with the beads next time.

Pretty. I think they have just the right amount of beads. The flowers remind me mums.

It looks fabulous!
I love the beads you used - the color reminds me of the juicy seeds of a pomegranate.

I actually kind of love it and wouldn't want any less beads. I might have to borrow this idea sometime.

I think it looks great! It reminds me of Dahlias. Love the color of the beads next to the green. Pretty!

No restraint necessary! This is perfect. I like the oval hoop you chose, too.

This is super adorable- I have been working on an embroidery myself, and that's exactly what I do, I draw something first, and then embroider it. Really cute. I've never tried beads before. Are the ones you used just regular seed beads?
