The Sweet Peas Embroidery Block

Sweet Peas Block No. 14.

Original Instructions: Colors may be of the pink to purple hues, but we suggest two tones of pink on one palm or two of violet on the other, using the darker for the top petals. Outline stitch may be used throughout or a long-and-short or buttonhole stitch around the larger back petal with the center solid. Green starts with the three tiny leaves at the base of the flowers, a light tender green, using three strands of fast-color six-strand floss.
