Playing with Beads

[vulvatron]

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!

Those look so luscious, too hell with restraint!

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?
