Alison Cole's Poppy

 Thought this would be an easy one - wrong! Finally finished. I used koma to help stitch the filigree leaves. I also simplified the main flower stem by using grecian twist instead of laying on cut purls, so much easier. I used thinner edging for the flower petals - same gold thread as the leaves; using pearl purl per instruction was too harsh. 



Next project is Shades of Blue.
