The day after I posted that I was only stitching the first floral stitches sampler of Year III, I received a note from Dropcloth saying I actually was paid up through June, IE. the second floral of the series. I was surprised, but of course, I stitch it up when it arrived.
I enjoyed stitching that sunshine very much, with those wonderfully warm colors.
Though I double-outlined the flowers around the outer edge, I couldn't seem to come up with a way to fill them in that I liked. After trying several different stitches, I decided to let them be for now. Maybe I'll revisit them at a later date; maybe not. It happens sometimes, so meanwhile, I'm calling this one complete for now.



You're so proficient at embroidery now. This one is especially pretty, probably because of those lovely warm colors. I think those flower petals look just fine without being filled-in. Beautifully done and dusted, I'd say.
