    Preparation:

    Trace the design onto a 12” x 8” rectangle of white background fabric and fuse the
    applique shapes in position.

    Blanket stitch around the applique shapes with a single strand of thread. I chose
    threads which blended with the main colour of each fabric.

    I’ve numbered the flowers according to row. Top row are flowers 1 and 2, bottom
    row are flowers 3, 4 and 5.

    Embroidery:
    Embroidery:
    (I chose DMC threads)

    Mint (3881) – backstitch the stems and leaves. Sew a line of blanket stitch up the
    middle of the leaves. Sew a line of running stitch over the top of the green hill.

    Light Green (966) – blanket stitch around applique flowers 1 and 5.

    Dark Pink (962) – backstitch the petals of flowers 1 and 5 and sew short straight
    stitches inside the petals.

    Very Dark Pink (150) - blanket stitch around applique flowers 2 and 3.
    Turquoise (598) - backstitch the petals of flowers 2 and 3 and sew short straight
    stitches inside the petals.

    Blue (813) - blanket stitch around applique flower 4.

    Bright Pink (603) - backstitch the petals of flower 4 and sew short straight stitches
    inside the petals.

    The Scripture Verse:

    Backstitch ‘You, O Lord’ in Very Dark Pink (150).

    Backstitch the remainder of the verse in Mint (3881).

    Display:

    I trimmed my completed stitchery block to 6 ¼” x 10 ¼” and then cut 1” wide strips


    of turquoise fabric for the first border.

    The second border was 1” wide strips of pink fabric. The borders were sewn with a
    ¼” seam.
    I then fused medium weight Pellon behind the bordered block before laying the
    block face down onto the right side of a rectangle of backing fabric.

    NOTE: If you want to add hanging ties now is the time to make them and sew them
    in place.
    Lately I’ve enjoyed finishing small projects without binding and using the envelope
    closure instead, so once you’ve pinned the front and back of your wall hanging
    together (right sides together), just sew around all four sides with a ¼” seam, leaving
    a 4” opening along one side for turning out.

    Turn right side out, pressing the corners gently with a large rounded tool such as a
    knitting needle, and ladder stitch the opening closed.

    Hand quilt in the ditch.

    I did not add a hanging sleeve because I used lengths of Perle #12 thread stitched
    behind the small quilt to attach it to the branches of my porcelain tree.
    I wonder what you have at home that would be an unusual mini quilt hanger?
    Look with new eyes and you may surprise yourself!
