make your own embroidered begonia
Craft yourself an everlasting begonia maculata.
Fun fact: begonias are closely related to pumpkins, melons and cucumbers. The waxy leaves of the popular indoor plant were also, at one point, used to polish swords. Pretty cool, eh? While begonias are fairly easy to care for, they can be a little fussy at times. Unless, of course, they’re made of felt, wire and thread, like this one by Aurora – the crafty lady behind Missarorua.
Inspired by her favourite houseplant, the begonia maculata, she created this 3D embroidered version. If you’d like to make one for yourself, pop over to Aurora’s Etsy shop, where she sells digital patterns and tutorials.
