Shamrock Chainstitched Border is a very nice design when finished. I really like the chainstitch border if you use a metallic thread for it that brings just a little sparkle to the design. If you try this design with metallic border don't forget to slow down your machine and change the needle for the metallic thread.
Shamrocks in a Heart Border Shape this works well as a stand alone design or as a picture frame if you leave off the last shamrock in the center. We have changed the color for the last shamrock just so you have a stop to leave it off if you want to cut the center out of this design and use it as a nice picture frame. Or you can use it as a ring around a candle and as a candle mat for you centerpiece at your St. Patty's party.
We made a bunch of these and added to Gifts for our wedding guests. They were done in colors of the wedding party and one deep red one. They sewed out well and were a great hit.
