Orchid Tassel finish

Recently a bag of stuff made it's way down here from ExH and in it was a Mill Hill tassel kit that must of been bought 10 years ago.
Monday I decided that I was going to make it up so I got to work, I did mean to take a pic of just the stitching but I forgot :(
So you'll have to make do with these.

This is with all the stitching and beading done


Whip stitch the edges to hide the perforated paper


Then you fold the paper and whip stitch the edges together.
I did take pics of that but they all turned out fuzzy so here's the finished tassel instead


And a couple of closer ones

Absolutely gorgeous! I have two of these myself which have been languishing in the stash for the best part of a decade :-) Thanks for the inspiration.

I remember those kits! So pretty! Isn't it wonderful to finish something so quickly. Great job!
