The quarter stitches add such a delicate texture to the leaves, and the pattern is easy to follow even with all the detail. I started it on a rainy Sunday and finished the backstitching by Tuesday—such a cheerful little project to work on.

The backstitching details really make the leaves pop—it’s fiddly work but worth every minute. Quarter stitches add just enough texture to keep things interesting without feeling overwhelming, and the chart is easy to follow. I’m already planning my next project from this leaflet.

The full stitches lay down beautifully flat, and the backstitching really makes the message pop off the fabric. This design is a cheerful little project that actually feels achievable in an evening or two.
