Flowers are blooming

My little flowers are multiplying :). My technique is slowly improving.  I'm auditioning background fabrics to see how scrappy I want to get.
I've also found a good cheddar to go with this.  You won't see a lot of this color, but I didn't have anything in my stash that really looked good.  So I found a repro with a tiny red flower - hope it's the right shade.  Also auditioning greens.....
I'm really happy with the progress so far.

  2. I am anxious to see the finished project. Looks like a lot of stitching done already to accomplish what you have done.
