| "Antique Rose Heart" pattern from Tat's Amore' by Martha Ess |
My rose heart is missing one round of Martha Ess's pattern, but I'm happy with how it turned out. The heart measures 3 and 1/2 inches (8.9 cm) across in size 20 Lizbeth thread. I used color numbers 615, 616, 696, 630, and 608 for the center, then hand dyed green ("Celery" and "Leafy") and finished with 676 for the outside edge.
The plan is to sew it onto my white jacket, which I started decorating in 2020.
Also this week I dyed a new batch of "Roses" hand dyed thread, now listed in my Etsy shop.
