Sparkling Swan

This design showcases "Jugendstil" like (ArtNouveau) Swans in stylized reeds, surrounded by bending leafs and scrolls. Many shades of white will be used, different weights of threads, metallic and silk braids, variegated flosses and such. Parts of this design will be delicately embellished by beads and crystals, backstitching, cross stitches and special stitches which create interest and dimension. Each SWAN will be differently colored in whites and pastels to make the stitching more pleasant!
