Strawberry Flowers


I've reduced the stitch count for the petals of the flower because I think (IMHO in text speak!) the flower is a bit big in proportion to the size of the strawberry leaves. The flower with the dark green centre is made with Ninetta's stitch count, the ones with lighter green centres with mine. I love the zig zag in the middle of the petals, so clever.

  1. Nice work :-) Yes, I, too loved her folded chain petals -- it is my go-to method now !

  5. This looks like a nice little tatting project, nice an summery. Are you going to make any strawberries?

  6. Both renditions (yours and ninetta's) in size 40 look beautiful for flowers. Very elegant and right choice if colors.. Do the natural strawberry blooms look pink?
