Foxglove: Elaine’s Botanicals

It’s funny, I always think of Foxgloves as being pinks and coral colours so this palatte surprised me.  I do rather like it, and it would be a great companion piece with the Hollyhock, although I could be having more flashbacks to Grandma’s fairy garden again.  It is, of course, entirely possible my pink and coral visions are of another plant entirely, given my track record with anything containing chorophyll.  Elaine has completed her Foxglove embroidery design with a range of stitches including double running stitch, stem stitch, french knots and pistol stitch.
