Yesterday I helped my sister 
Next I needed to create the structure on which to form the petals. There are many different ways to do this depending on how you want your petals to look. For this design I used a series of chain stitches.
Now I can make the first round of petals, I did this by stitching over the chains with a variety of stitches in ascending then descending order of size, adding a picot stitch in the middle to add definition to the petals shape. You could leave it there if you wanted but I always intended on having two layers of petals for this design as with five petals it looks more like a star the a flower.
Therefore I needed to repeat the process of creating a structure for another layer of petals. This time I attached the chains between the first layer of petals so that the second layer would fall between the first, this is a little fiddly but worth the effort. (This is a good point to change yarn colour if you want)
Thank you for reading my first post.
I would really appreciate any comments or steemit tips you may have to share.
