    My block 11. I did the embroidery on the green before adding it onto the black, but you could do it after, once the black has been trimmed away.

    I put the flower in the middle of my background (and cut a way behind, as before)

    Appliqued the green to the black, Not tucking under where the heart flowers were going

    Using a template to redraw over the green

    These are beautiful blocks! I think the embroidery adds so much to the design!

    Yes, to me they look rather 'undressed' without the embroidery.

    What a great idea to do the embroidery on "itself" so to speak before adding it to the backgroun. How did you get so smart Lesley?

    More beautiful blocks. I know I keep repeating myself on every thread, but they are gorgeous.
