Regular blog readers will know that every year I exhibit with NEOS - North-east Open Studios. (North-east Scotland, that is) It’s a big and very exciting event and involves exhibitions of hundreds of artists from all over this area. NEOS isn’t until early September but the date is getting ever closer, and I’m beginning to get nervous that I might not have enough things ready for exhibition. So I won’t be posting on the blog regularly until after NEOS is over, although I‘ll post September’s freebie as usual
And talking of freebies, here’s a summery flowery design for August, which was inspired by all the wild roses we have growing here.
Flowers for summer
It’s for the 5x7 inch (13 x 180 mm) hoop and there are a LOT of jumps in it. This was unavoidable in a design with so many separate parts but I hope they won’t be too much of a problem for you. Again I don’t think it needs a worksheet – there are four shades of reds and four shades of yellowish tones, which are the flowers, followed by different reds and yellows for the centres. Just choose colours you like and they should be fine
Here is the design, in .pes v.6. By the way, a few people always have problems downloading these freebies. If that includes you, just drop me a line (via "Comments") and I'll e-mail it to you
