Awww, thanks, everyone for the encouragement! I really appreciate your words!

I used a water soluble blue marker to mark the crosshatching, and the squares inside the red blocks. I drew the first 2 pointsettias freehand, and after stitching them, just used a small glass to mark a center circle, and stitched freehand. I am just flying by the seat of my pants, so there are probably much more professional methods to mark motifs! I don't have very many stencils, but that would certainly give you a more consistent look!
