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

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?

LOL, my dad would have said it was in the genes he gave me.
