Make Roses Easily with this Video

February 19, 2012

In BeStitched wonderful series of needlepoint videos, they have one for a great “more bang for the buck” technique. It shows how to use silk ribbon and loose bullion knots to make lovely simple ribbon roses.

I was, I admit, skeptical because bullions are not my favorite stitches, but this technique is so simple and so lovely that you’l start looking for canvases with swathes of roses just so you can try it.
