Swan Lake is worked onto sea-green silk fabric using raised embroidery and metal thread techniques, and further embellished with beads. The back of the ornament is embroidered with a decorative laid trellis.
The embroidery kit includes all materials needed to complete the design.
You have option to transfer the design yourself using the full-size pattern in the Standard Kit or a Traced Kit where I will trace the design onto the silk for you.

By the Pond is a tranquil, nature-inspired silk embroidery panel, featuring a stylised floral border framed by a soft sage and metallic gold zig-zag border.
An exotic long-tailed bird perches on a curling vine, its plumage richly detailed in teal, golden yellow, cream, and copper brown using a variety of embroidery stitches that mimic real feathers.
Surrounding the bird, a row of soft golden chinoiserie-style flowers blooms across the design, and foliage in shades of green and soft teal blue adds pattern and texture through the clever use of different stitches.
Below the flower border, graceful arched terraces in soft green span a shimmering pond, its water suggested by wavy stitches in blue, teal, and glittering metallic gold.
By the Pond is stitched with 15 shades of stranded Au ver a Soie silk threads, in a palette of soft golden yellow, sage greens, teal blues, and soft blue-grey with accents of metallic gold. The embroidery design is printed on a generous piece of natural linen/cottone fabric, ready for you to stitch.
The By the Pond panel is perfect for a pretty purse or small bag, or for setting into a box lid, which is what I did with mine. It will also look amazing as a cushion, a framed piece for your wall, or a fabulous cover for a book or diary perhaps.

Surrounding the bird, an array of fantastical flowers blooms on the meandering stems. Foliage, embroidered in a mix of mostly common stitches in shades of green and soft teal blue, adds pattern and texture to the design.
