Stitch a Garden of Spring Daffodils

From Cheryl Fall, About.com GuideMarch 5, 2010

New today is this pretty counted needlepoint pattern Spring Daffodils, worked in yellow and pale orange accented by shades of lilac.

Daffodils are a species of the genus Narcissusone, which also includes Jonquils and Narcissus. These pretty yellow, orange, white - or a combination of these colors - are one of the first signs of color in the garden after a long winter.

Even if these beauties are not yet appearing in your own garden, you can stitch a canvas full of flowers in full bloom using tent stitches by following the free pattern.
