7. Red Hanging Loop and Berry Cluster
Ch 35 in red, or adjust to your preferred loop length. Fasten off with two long tails. Fold the chain and sew both ends securely to the backing disc, catching several stitches and making at least four passes. Bring the loop out through the upper gap between leaves.
Pin the four berries over the leaf bases in a compact two-by-two cluster. Sew each berry through its gathered base and the disc below, taking several passes. Add a few hidden stitches between adjacent berry bases so the cluster does not separate. Keep the red loop attachment beneath the upper berries.
Finishing and Care
Lightly damp-block the leaves before final assembly if they curl. Pin the picots gently and allow them to dry fully. Do not flatten the stuffed berries. Check the loop and berry seams with a gentle tug, then weave in all tails. This is a hanging decoration with small sewn parts and a long loop; display it out of reach of young children and pets.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use green leaves?
Yes, although ivory leaves with red berries match the supplied reference. Keep the stitch counts unchanged.
Can I leave out the stuffing?
The leaves and disc stay unstuffed. The berries need only a tiny amount for their round shape; reduce it if you prefer a softer cluster.
How do I stop the leaves from twisting?
Keep the center vein relaxed, block before assembly, and sew each base across its width rather than at a single point.

The berry and backing-disc instructions are given separately above. The English legend identifies the mixed-height stitches and picots.
