These designs are roughly based on my earlier Crystal Star designs. I have added a lot more features and elements to them including some blended scrolls which have a patina effect, the green film that develops on copper and bronze over time. This is regarded a beautiful weathering and I am delighted that I was able to capture it in these embroideries. I experimented with several combinations, concluding that Sulky Rayon 1055 Tawny Tan and 1204 Pastel Jade were the best combination.

There are a variety of stars in these designs and one colour way has the assigned a metallic thread. I prefer to use just a small amount of metallic thread and to embellish with hot fix crystals and stars. Details on how to embroider the corner scalloped design in this set, are given in the accompanying PDF. The first design in this set is ideal for a centrepiece, like a jacket back or cushion. Design #5 will make a great vertical panel of embroidery. There is a small wreath in this set and design #12 and #15 can be used to create a horizontal border. I enjoyed the challenge of design #13 which is star shaped.

Stitch count: 14,182 - 52,105
