About this design

What the design shows

Three five-petaled blossoms grow from one slim branch that rises diagonally from lower left to upper right. The lowest bloom turns outward from the stem, the middle flower faces forward, and the top flower is slightly larger. Fine lines define the softly notched petal edges. Each center is built from narrow filaments and separate dark dots rather than a shaded disk. Two elongated leaves branch away from the flowers: one sits low on the left, and another points toward the right near the upper bloom. The branch has a few short texture strokes but remains much lighter than the flower outlines. Everything is black and grey, with open skin left inside every petal. In the placement image, the sprig follows the inner forearm vertically, from just above the wrist toward the elbow, at around palm length.

Placement

Placement and size

The on-skin image runs the stem up the inner forearm, starting just above the wrist and pointing toward the elbow. Its narrow direction can also work on the outer calf, side rib, beside the ankle, along the upper arm, or near the spine. Keep enough length for the three blooms to step apart. When scaling down, reduce the individual stamen dots before merging the leaves into the branch. The flower centers should still read as three separate points rather than one dark line.

Patchwork

Building it into a patchwork

The sprig is a light vertical connector with little solid shading. It can bridge a small script line and a fine insect, or sit beside a tiny vase, fern, or single star. Put neighboring work on the leaf-free side when possible, giving the petals room to remain open. A dense blackwork motif should not touch its outline. Leave a slim strip of visible skin along both sides of the stem, especially around the two leaves and the outer petal tips.

Small pieces that pair with it

  • A tiny bee near the top blossom
  • A single star on the leaf-free side
  • Three pin dots near the lower stem
