I treated myself to some lovely marguerittes for the garden this week and they instantly added a dash of cheerfulness and sunshine. There really is something about daisies that lift the spirits.
I felt inspired to try some daisy embroideries, taken from the sketches of ox-eye daisies I did last year.
My friend recently gave me a bolt of vintage white glazed cotton and this is perfect for daisy petals. So crisp, lovely to cut into and gives the daisies a lovely lustre. I chose some bright, fresh, yellowish-green for the background.
Really pleased with these, I tried to make them as realistic and ‘drawn’ looking as possible. I`ll put these in my Etsy shop, perhaps set in embroidery hoops. I`d like to do a bigger piece, perhaps a large cushion or wall hanging featuring a whole swathe of daisies.

They look lovely , well done , just surfing for ideas googled Daisy stitch seen your design ,I love daisy looks so beautiful dancing in the summer breeze you caught the effect. Thank you for sharing
Thanks Jennifer, I love daisies too. It`s nearly a year since I did those embroideries and now daisies are starting to appear in the grass again. These were based on ox eye daisies, my favourite wild flowers.
