Charming baby pants with 3 different embroideries in the same pattern! A lion, a bear and a monkey.

About the embroideries:

The motif is embroidered with only one type of stitch, back stitch. Follow the drawings in the pattern.

We first embroider the outline around the figures, then we fill in with colors inside (filling stitch=satin stich).

The filling stitches should be as close as possible to avoid the background color showing through. They can advantageously overlap each other.

It is nice to vary the length of these stitches.

NB! The expression will be prettiest if you let the stitches follow the curves of the figures.

You will need a pice of water-soluble interfacing for the embrobidery (18x18cm), together with an embroidery-ring (15cm).
