I added some back stitch in gold thread to embellish the ribbon and straight stitch in some leaves to represent the veins.
Finishing
Cut the two embroidered and ironed pieces leaving an edge of about 7 mm. Return all 4 edges on the back and fix with a running stitch. By putting the two parts against each other, embroidered faces outside, embroider with Palestrina stitch and 4 threads of stranded cotton passing through the two layers of fabric. I inserted a bead between each Palestrina knot.
Embroider all around the fob in this way. Insert a cord at the top and a tassel at the bottom, fill and close.
Threads
To embroider this design, we used DMC cotton floss 779, 522, white, 3740, 814 and 817
