The stitching for the first wall for the patio/balcony scene from Stitch is just about done. Next up is making irises. There are good instructions for forming the flowers but nothing about how long the stems should be. I'm gonna work backward and make a few flowers and then do the stems.
I've visited 3 of the 4 craft stores in the area looking for a piece of wood. The closest I've come is whatevers in pot pourri but they're not 'perfect.' I'm thinking of putting some wadding down and then covering it with stitches or make a bundle of perle cotton or wool.
I'd much rather couch a piece of wood like the model but don't know were else to look. There are a lot of twigs and branches right out side but they're damp and buggy.
Help!!!
