Irises in the Garden | WorksByABC

Irises in the Garden | WorksByABCDesigners note Irises are one of my favorite flowers. Since I naturally lean toward purples and blues, perhaps its no surprise! It felt like the perfect time to design a pattern featuring this elegant bloom. An extra bonus I recently discovered: irises are the state flower of Tennessee. How fitting to release this design at the Nashville Needlework Market! Stitch count: 147 x 212Fabric: 32 count French Vanilla linen from Grace Notes FabricsThreads:
