Did you know that a snake watching over donuts is something of a new symbol for making sure you’re staying in shape? Well, I don’t really know if this is true in general, but for this one certainly. Delicious donuts just tempting one for a bite and above them a snake with his tongue sticking out, looking very real… I’d have one, but perhaps rather not 😊
Our skilled embroiderer, Soňa Krebesová, has patiently played with stitching crosses to truly bring this pattern to life. See for yourselves! The colours, the shades and the light play just add to the lovely effect, depth and 3D imagery thus making the entire picture come alive (the yummy yummy donuts… the snake rather not 😊). One doesn’t know what to feast his or her eyes on first.
The image size is 130 x 57 stitches. 51 colours and 3 mixed colour blends are used. It is embroidered using cross-stitches and half-stitches with backstitches and french knots giving it an elegant touch. DMC threads are used.
If it caught your eye, you can order the pattern in VK group https://vk.com/disotadoya or see details here.
