Beaded Roseground Bookmark - A Fine Torchon Design
Designer: Sally Smiddy
Description: a bookmark with a difference as you have the option of adding beads to the roseground area plus some sparkle at the end of each trail too. You can choose not to add the sparkle too.
Starting instructions are provided along with other useful information to work the piece including how to add in the sequins/beads
The roseground filling is inspired by a YouTube video by Lesley FW called "Seed Beads in Roseground"
Suggested thread: Fila au Chinois 60/2 has been used for the worked example. Equivalent threads may of course be used. You may wish to add a coloured worker pair to add your choice of colour to the trail - an equivalent thread size can be used for this
Pattern also uses 3mm Flat Sequins (optional) and 2mm/size 11 beads.
Bobbins: 32 pairs plus 4 gimp pairs.
