When I was paired with @endymion for the Easter Egg swap this spring, one of the items she requested was a mini hoop. I immediately tried figuring out how I could fit a hoop into a tiny easter egg, but remembered that I had a large empty egg to work with. This oval hoop JUST fit inside the egg. I looked through her themes and she had spring wildflowers on her list which inspired this little hoop containing a field of flowers.
Yes! Lots of french knots. The larger ones were made using three pieces of embroidery floss together and were difficult to get through the fabric, but I think it was worth it in the end.
I so LOVE my hoop! It is gorgeous, and perfect for me. I could tell the stitching must have been a beast. The stamped metal was the ultimate touch. Thanks again!
