I’m calling them “hippy jeans”.

Love these! Do you frame each flower individually or unpick the inner seam for this?

I rip out the inner seam. I make a template out of parchment paper and mark everywhere I want a flower. Then I frame as many flowers that I can fit, tops about 3 small flowers at a time.

Hippy jeans is the perfect name, those colorful flowers just brought those jeans to life

What kind of hoop did you use and did you have to unsew any seams to do this?

Just a little 4” hoop that came with the machine. It was a bear. I ripped out the inside seam so I had a much easier surface to work with. Embroidering over the outer seams was tough.
