"Hana-Ami" flower loom

 I own a flower loom (Clover Art No. 3146), saw their pattern on web site (https://clover.co.jp/) for Nanduti with the square.   They also have teneriffe patterns for the round piece.   Noticed the patterns use a huck needle (not the plastic one that comes with the loom).

So far, the loom is ok to use.  It is nice to see both sides of the needle weaving -- tho, the pegs can get in the way 
(I'm used to foam looms, wooden looms, lace pillow where the pins are pushed in--or sewn spokes on fabric).

I'm using DMC coton perle 5, col. 602 - start.
changing to col. 742 next for the rest of the petals.
Edge knotting w/ DMC No. 8, Col. 959.  

 Tradition: the work you see is the BACK of the project.   Once off the loom, turn it over to the front.
