Geometric florals - Hydrangea

This series explores the point where flowers and geometry cross paths and then walk along together having a nice time.
Hydrangeas are an absolutely glorious plant! This designs explores the way the tiny blooms collect together to make a mammoth, heavy flower head, creating a bold gorgeous unmissable treasure! This series will grow over the coming weeks to include cornflower, astrantia, calendula, red clover (and other designs in progress too)
These designs were also an opportunity to use some of the brightest DMC shades, here I chose a (slightly brighter than the real life flowers real life flowers) turquoise, but of course, you can stitch these up in any colour you wish. You can be true to nature or indulge in a bit of fantasy!

These designs measure the same as the adventures in geometry 1-9 and my botanical blocks - 120 x 120 stitches
On 14 count this is approx 22 x 22 cm (8.5 x 8.5 inches), on 16 count 19 x 19 cm (7.5 x 7.5 inches) & on 18 count 17 x 17 cm (7 x 7 inches).
