I bought three kits to work in an 8 inch hoop, all with flower designs on dark green backgrounds. I completed them more or less according to the patterns, only making a few tiny changes to make one of the flowers/its stem look a bit more realistic/to add in stems missing from the pattern so that they’d extend down to the base as with the other stems. I learned chain stitch. I also saw that massed French knots make a nice effect for the centre of daisies. In the end, I decided to only display one of these (the one with most colour and embroidery) because one of the other ones ended up with its background fabric discolouring after exposure to sunlight and then I decided that white/yellow/brown ones would look a little melancholy.
The three I bought, plus one other (the one with the design in a circle) are in this photo from the seller.
