Microbead Embroidery Postcard-Envelope Kit "Chamomile"

“Chamomile” shows three large daisies tied with an orange ribbon. The composition rests on a band that splits the sheet in two.

What the picture shows

A narrow vertical band of alternating green, white and beige beads runs near the left edge, like a length of tape, and holds the whole design together. To the right of it three large daisies open out: the narrow white petals are worked in radiating rows, the centres as tight orange discs. Another daisy peers out on the left of the band, and a green bud stands at the top. Blue brushstrokes show between the petals — that is print, and it stays unbeaded. The stems are gathered into a bunch and tied with an orange bow with long tails. A horizontal green ribbon crosses the lower third. The background, olive green and grey-blue, stays as printing.
