Filling Patterns of Section 5 I

The bird’s belly has a relatively large area, which, due to its shape, can be used to embroider the Limet pattern “Cones” (Limetrosen I, page 79), but embroidered from top to bottom. To ensure that the pattern does not turn out too coarse, the thread withdrawing is made 2:1

and embroidered with the pattern using coton à broder No. 25.

I think this pattern represents the bird’s plumage well.
The pattern of the bird sitting opposite is worked in mirror image.

For the small bellflowers, the outer petals are surrounded with Chain stitches (coton à broder No. 30).

The center of the flower receives a simple horizontal thread withdrawing 3:1.

Wave stitches are embroidered using coton à broder No. 25.

The opposite flower is in the middle section also embroidered with Wave stitches.

One could decorate the petals of the carnation with daisy stitches, I left them unembroidered, as well as the crest of the right bird, its middle tail feather and the center of the wing.
