    Default Interpreting what a customer wants

    This woman was a bit luke warm about what she wanted. It turns out she's not overly fond of her niece and this was her wedding gift. She thought flowers might be nice and some tendrils. The pieces was so busy with so many colours that and overall meander would be lost, so I decided on 15 large flowers and a filler of tendril work.
    I think she was pleasantly surprised.

    I like what you did. I bet she really liked it, even though she may not care for her niece. She is truly a good person to spend the time and money to make such a nice wedding gift.

    The first thing I noticed was how similar your flower was to the one in the border. Sometimes the solution is right in front of us. Good job.
    peace

    I totally agree. I would not have done as much for someone I didn't like very well.
