Blackwork Butterfly PDF Embroidery pattern
Blackwork Butterfly PDF Embroidery pattern
In this pattern you will learn several blackwork patterns and the ability to do counted needlework.
This technique uses many of the same principles as cross stitch so if you are good at that, you can do this too!
This pattern is great for beginners as it includes much more specific details about how to get going with this technique than my other patterns do! I’ve even included a stitch by stitch explanation of a whole wing of the butterfly to get you going and step by step images of the whole process
This PDF pattern contains:
Full instructions (includes instructions on how to use your pattern transfer, how to use an embroidery hoop, how to separate your threads and how to finish your embroidery for display)
Charted patterns broken down into layers to isolate the outline and detail for ease of stitching
Blackwork Cheat Sheet to get you started with the technique
Materials list including DMC references for threads
You will also need:
Fabric, threads and hoop as detailed in the materials list
Blunt needle
A pair of scissors
Finished design should fit in a 5 inch embroidery hoop when using 20 count Aida.
