Who inspires whom? What inspires what? How does it all work? Whatever the philosophical underpinnings, this is a simple post on what more the eye saw in Endrucks' pattern #3 besides the original edging, square motifs, and a fruit/flower bowl.
From Endrucks' edging #3, where I spotted a heart, Sue His Kid spotted a butterfly! https://tipsaroundthehome.blogspot.com/2022/01/more-multiples.htmlSue shared the Eye Spy Butterfly pattern here - http://hiskid66.blogspot.com/2022/06/pendant-and-butterfly-from-muskaan-eye.html
This is my Eye Spy Heart from the same source. I had sketched the idea over the Square motif (scroll down to the last pic in that post), but it got forgotten among all other projects. Sue's butterfly motivated me to work it out and believe me, the above model is both my prototype as well as the final piece, finished in less than an hour, and no blocking required, either!
Work in size 10 thread, since the finished size is small. My Heart, in Anchor size 20, measures less than 4cms across and 3cms high.
The motif is worked clockwise all from the front, except for ringG. Hence reverse work (rw) only before and after ring G.
