this tree has a fence made from buttonhole stitch for the posts and straight stitch with cross stitches for the wire and barbs. The leaves are were made with cotton floss I dyed
this tree was the first freeform machine embroidery I did. I just put the section in a hoop and began stitching. it is done with ordinary sewing thread
this shows another tree I used my dyed floss for the leaves. also some combination stitches
