Wisteria from Four Seasons Wallhanging

In the April and July 2006 issues of the CQ Magazine, I had photos of my Four Seasons Wallhanging. Since then, it's been packed away in the UFO drawer with little hope of being finished. I took it out this year and have started working on it again...hopefully I can show it to you finished. This wisteria was one of the first embroideries I did on it in 2006 and I hope that you can make use of the design. Chain stitch, lazy daisy, and French knots with some beads added, are the only embroidery stitches you'll need.

    Hi Maureen:

    Thank you for sharing your beautiful wisteria CQ, and the pattern to make it!!!

    I have two wisteria just outside my dining room window where I can see see them all the time. The fragrance is intoxicating.

    Here in southern California, in the small community of Sierra Madre, there is an amazingly huge wisteria that covers, I've heard, an acre, half-acre? One plant! Now, as I tend toward hyperpole, I could be wrong about the exact size...but it is BIG! LOL!!

    Thank you!!!

    Carolyn

    Maureen..I love your work! It is spectacular! I tried my hand at your wisteria on a block that I made for my MIL in April as a birthday gift. You can find it on one of my older posts on my blog. I hope my work measures up to being at least half as good as yours. You truly inspire me!
