Cosmos: Elaine’s Botanicals

Dionne    Embroidery and Crewel     double running, Elaine's botanicals, embroidery, french knots, lazy daisy

Not sure where I have seen Cosmos.  Had to ring mum and ask if and where she had it.  Of course she has it.  It is just that this delicate annual is a late summer flower, apparently a ground cover, and I am never there at Strathmore when it is flowering.

Timing is not a problem with Elaine’s Botanicals Cosmos, it will bloom forever and very importantly not need to be replanted next spring for a late summer show.  Delicately stitched in double running stitch, lazy daisy and french knots, the little leaves resemble fern fronds.
