Quilter54,
I used a back stitch and French knots. The design was enlarged to 16" for a large pillow and I may embellish it with some swarvroski stones when it's finished.

You should go for it! I do redwork in any color I please. Red is my fave, but if the patterns asks for something else I don't hesitate. Wonderful pattern!
