I have been working up the courage to try a little embroidery on one of my quilts and I thought what better place to start then stems. Since I am not exactly sure where all the leaves and flowers arre going to go I thought I would arrange and baste everything down before I decided where to mark the stems. After I get those all appliqued down I will embroider stems.
Hope this works out....
can't wait to see how you get on

Your basket is stunning and the blue flowers really add some pop. I can't wait to see how the embroidered stems look!

you are good at what you do. I have every confidence in the world that your embroidery will turn out fine, too. Lovely arrangement. Both the blue and red add a lovely color splash against the greens, golds and oranges.

When I saw your stem in your other blog post, I thought "That looks so cool!!! That's what I'm going to do." I love all the inspiration you give me!
