“The embroidery is a flannel flower, but with no indication about thread colours. Sadly, I am having a great deal of difficulty in finding a good, clear and crisp photograph of the plant to determine the shades I should be considering. Is the stem, for example, grey-green or grey-brown and which of the myriad greens or browns would be best? The representations I have so far seen indicate that the petals end with a shade of grey or blue or something of those colours, but do they really?
Live flannel flowers are equally difficult to come by, which is why a good colour pic would be useful.”
