The kit only includes the materials required to work this design because the pattern and instructions have been published in Embroidery & Cross Stitch Vol. 12 No.2 (back issues are available from Express Publications in Australia - free call for back issues is 1800 801 647). The background is pink Dupion silk but it is also available on cream or pale gold Dupion silk. The flowers and leaves are padded with felt and are then covered with a variety of gold work techniques using gilt and silver threads. The top flower is worked with chips of gilt and silver bright check purls, with the centre filled with loops of gilt smooth purl. It sits on two rows of overlapping gilt spangles. The petals of the daisies are outlined with pearl purl and filled in with cutwork using gilt smooth purls. The daisies' centres are very glittery with their petite gold beads surrounded with loops of silver bright check. The circular flowers are worked as laid work using silver smooth passing and their highly padded centres are covered with gold kid leather and finished with an outline of gilt pearl purl and a pink crystal. Grasses are worked into the design with fine machine metal threads and gold and coloured petite seed beads. The beautiful feature of the basket is its rows of s-ing with spangles and the plate work on its base.
