L ily Of The V alley

By Connie McEvoy

Materials Required:

Piece of White fabric 12cm x 12cm. I have used

wild silk but many other fabrics would be fine.

Lightweight iron on Vilene 12cm x 12cm.

Stranded cottons, see chart below.

Fine crewel needle.

Tracing paper.

Black pencil.

Embroidery hoop.

Dressmakers pins and masking tape.

Double sided tape.

Card mount AP09U, Dark Green.

To Make The Card:

Trace the leaves from the diagram onto the

tracing paper. Pin the traced design onto the back

of the iron on Vilene placing it centrally.

Use masking tape to fix this to a bright

window (or if you have a light box, even better)

with the tracing side toward the glass. Trace the

leaves onto the Vilene using the black pencil.

Remove from the window and unpin the

tracing. Iron the Vilene centrally onto the white

silk fabric, it should show through clearly

enough for you to work over.

Place the silk into the embroidery hoop and

follow chart one for the stitching. Using two

strands of 268 (deep green), embroider the leaves

in fishbone stitch. As you stitch along each leaf,

follow the central vein to give the leaf it’s shape.

Work the leaf stems in backstitch.

Still following chart one, use straight

stitch for the stems and fly stitch for the

feathery tops, work the fine grasses in

the back of the posy. Use 2 strands of 260

for the grasses that are pale green, and 2

strands of 042 for the deep pink grasses.

Using chart two, work the Lily stems in

2 strands of 267 (medium green). Bring the

needle up through the fabric at A, take the

thread over to C laying it onto the fabric

but don’t stitch into the fabric. Instead tie a

small knot at C and fold the thread back to

A. Take the needle back through the fabric

at A leaving the laid thread on the front of

the work.

Bring the needle back to the front of the

work at A. Using small satin stitches and

stitching through the leaves beneath, over-

cast the laid threads from points A to B.

Continue stitching along the laid threads

using buttonhole stitch (without taking

the needle through the fabric or leaves) so

the stem remains free. Work to the end of

the laid threads at C and fasten off without

fixing to the fabric.

Wo rk the second flower stem following

the same method, begin overcasting at D

and work to E. Switch to buttonhole stitch

and continue to point F.

The flowers and buds are worked in the same

way for both stems, follow chart three. Use 1

strand of 267 (med green) and 1 of white together

for the buds, work three or four French knots

along the top 6 to 8mm of the stem. As you work,

the stem will twist and blend into the knots, this

is desirable so don’t worry about it.

Using 2 strands of white work the flowers

onto the loose stems, begin with the lowest

flower. Work 6 French knots in a huddle onto

the stem just above B. Work satin stitch over the

knots to make a rounded and bulbous flower.

The frilly petal edges are made from three small

loops worked onto the edge of the flower, vary

the positions so they face in different directions.

Continue using 2 strands of white and make a

small loop, work buttonhole stitch over the loop

until it is completely covered. Make another loop

right next to the first and cover with buttonhole

stitch, then make a third loop and cover in the

same way. Work another flower next to this in

exactly the same way.

The next 2 flowers are worked using the same

method but each is made a little smaller than the

one before by reducing the number of French

knots in the huddle as follows. For the third

flower work over 4 French knots and, for the

fourth flower work over just 2 French knots.

After working the flowers thread the needle

with a single strand of 267 (medium green).

Between the third and fourth flower on each

stem work a single, slightly loose stitch to lightly

catch the stem against the fabric. This prevents

them from moving around too much but the

small top flower and the buds will still be able

to bend naturally.

To make the bow, thread the needle with two

strands of 260 (pale green) cut to approximately

15cm long. Working from the right side, insert

the needle through the fabric where marked in

the diagram, leaving the ends on the front of the

work. Bring the needle back through to the right

of the stems where shown. Unthread the needle

and making sure both sides of the thread are

about even, tie a small knot to secure the threads

across the stems followed by a neat bow. Adjust

the ends and loops to a pleasing length and trim

if necessary.

Mount the work into the card in the usual

way and glue the card closed.
