wildrose Report post Posted April 7, 2009 Love the color and the sewn border. I see you have the same problem I do : rose leaves. It's hard to get the serrated edge look, and the veining. Many times I'll do just the rose and skip the leaves! LOL! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gtwister09 Report post Posted April 7, 2009 Josh, I would suggest that you design around the snaps. The snaps on top of the rose detract from the bracelet slightly. Maybe moving it about 1/2 would have made the snaps fall outside the rose. I have included an old tutorial on rose leaves. Another suggestion may be to work on the swivel knife cuts on the large roses as well as the rose buds. The stitching could be a little more recessed to keep it from being abraded.
