I am so oooooooing and ughhhhhhing! Macybaby your center is so royal looking. Beautiful colors.
Since we will be at our daughters until Saturday, I can't get back to sewing until next week. Good and bad. Gives me more time to "think" and redo my center. I think I may split my Dresden apart and put it in the corners and the bee, vines and leaves in the center. Still a work in progress.... in my head!
Embroidery sounds lovely to me. I like seeing what others create and blend together.
