Thanks Qbee, glad you like it. The "piping" stuff around the flowers on the end blocks is embroidery with a really heavy thread called "Pearl Crown Rayon" by YLI.
I did the center of the flowers in the pot by Ruching a circle and squishing in where I wanted it to be and tacking it down. First attempt at that, but I thought it came out well.
Don't feel bad Qbee. I've been quilting for years and years and still learn something new almost every day. This year is my year to expand my horizons, so I am doing lots more handwork than ever before. It's been lots of fun and think how more I can learn with all that's left of this year.
