When I first found smooth purl (zardosi thread) in my small town a few years back, I was so
excited that I decided to experiment with it. The results were these flowers
which I created from various stitches.I had only a small amount of the thread
then, so I was somewhat stingy and kept recycling it for the various flowers
that you can see below.In the end, fix it onto the fabric using a thin layer of
fabric glue.
This is a twisted
lazy daisy stitch petals.
Another twisted lazy
daisy stitch variation.

I will share with you
some more smooth purl flowers in my next post.
