		<description><![CDATA[Flower Filling To create our Flower Filling stitch, take the double circular web one step further by adding another web in the center, like doing a Dove’s eye. When finishing, conceal the thread behind the loop of the circular web taking it out to the kloster block to bury your thread. &#171; Back to Stitches]]></description>

The second circle is created by running the needle through the loops of the circular web. Finish by inserting the needle into the hole where the web began. &#171; Back to Stitches]]></description>
