long and short 3


 another long and short flower.unlike previous one (the fig below) i have taken three shades. but it came out right after two failed attempts,i started with wrong choice of direction and all the hard work and time gone waste.in irritated mood i startted the second flower and lo it also went wrong  (the third and fourth fig) .maybe i have chosen a flower of some odd shape  o GOD i have to embroider 5 more flowers and d also take out the two wasted ones.



knitting and a lot else
