This embroidery pattern uses the technique of thread painting and stumpwork to create a realistic-looking, 3-dimensional ficus house plant. Thread painting is an embroidery style that is a bit more time-consuming but an extremely fun way to stitch. This design will fit in a 7 inch or 5 x 7 inch embroidery hoop. You don't need any experience with thread painting or stumpwork to complete this pattern. However, some general embroidery experience and knowledge are recommended due to the size and complexity of the design. ***You will need craft wire and some heavy duty scissors or wire cutters to complete the stumpwork part of the pattern!
