Blackwork Patterns

- No. of floss colors requiredBlack and gold (can be substituted for yellow). (Exact DMC numbers provided)
Full coverage blackwork piece featuring a repeating geometric pattern of flowers and bumble bees.
If you are familiar with cross stitch and in particular backstitch then you will have no trouble with blackwork. If you are new to blackwork then all my patterns include a 'How to blackwork' guide and it's super easy to get started.
Pattern designed to fit a 6 inch round frame (when stitched on 14 count aida) but due to the repeating pattern can easily be adapted to fit a variety of different shaped frames.
I designed two versions of this pattern and couldn't decide which one I prefer so I have included both versions in the download:
- ★ Version 1 - hints of gold on the bees
- ★ Version 2 - plain black bees.
2 chart versions are included but can easily be adapted.
- ★ Circle version - 6 inches x 6 inches
- ★ Square version - 6 inches x 6 inches
Once stitched it is easy to frame in a wooden hoop or flexi hoop (available at most craft stores) and looks great as wall art in your home.

The pattern was super easy to follow! I ended up making a bookmark as a teacher gift. End result was super cute and exactly what I wanted.
