Many of you said that these stitcheries needed color and I agreed.
I went bold.
I had several bee prints that I thought I would use but ended up setting most of them aside. They just weren’t ‘doing it’ for me. Too dark against that black border. Or too white, and not enough color. Whatever. Go big and bright!
I will probably tone it down with more of that black sashing. We will see.
For now, it will marinate while I do some mundane things.
Like clean house…a necessary evil.
Have fun and carry on!

Perfect! Especially since they’re nestled amongst plenty of flowers (I like the dahlias best!) Would the ‘more black’ be in an inner border?

Sharp again! Plenty of flowers for happy bees! I am still undecided about the sashing. 🙂

Like how you let design ideas “marinate” for awhile.

Sounds better than, “I don’t know what to do with it, so I’m not doing anything”, or “I am bored with it”, or “I’m procrastinating”. Ha, ha! 🤣

I love the blue and yellow with the bee embroideries! A bit of black to frame the entire thing will really set it off.
