About this pattern
Daffodils always feel like the first real sign of spring to me, so March's posy is pure sunshine: one daffodil facing you, two turned to the side with their trumpets out, a closed bud and long strappy leaves, tied with a golden bow.
It's 8 DMC colors of buttery yellows, warm orange and fresh greens. The trumpets and petals are made from simple shapes with a soft golden outline, so the flowers read clearly even from across the room.
It's a cheerful birthday gift for anyone born in March, and lovely for Mother's Day or Easter too.
Every design in my Birth Flowers series shares the same layout: a small tied posy with a ribbon bow and the month name underneath, about 3.6 x 5.7 inches on 14 count Aida (50 x 80 stitches). They frame beautifully in a 5 x 7 inch frame, and you can leave the month name off if you'd like just the flowers. I'd stitch it on antique white Aida.
You'll get a color chart, a black and white chart, a large-print chart and a Pattern Keeper compatible PDF, plus a DMC floss key and a how-to-start page.
