Both floral motifs are done. My deadline was to finish them by the first of July. I can begin to finish each into a little fabric box. The silk that is behind them will cover the boxes.
After stitching the first one, on the left, I decided that I liked the way the two shades of scarlet gave the flower dimension. For the second one, I decided to add some dark green to give the leaves dimension. I know that I used white and and off-white for the lilies of the valley in the first one; I decided that I needed to use two other choices to show a little more contrast. I think that the second attempt is still very subtle.
After I took this picture, I decided to take a picture of my blooming orchid. In that extra short time, Mooch found the silk and decided I put it out for him.
