May I ask how you made the vines. Are they made from bias tape? Thanks, I keep coming back to see this, I am going to bookmark it.

It is beautiful. I like your patchwork background like bricks for them to climb on

The vines are three full strands of three different shades of pearl cotton held together and couched down with a zig zag stitch and invisible thread. I don't remember now which size of pearl cotton it is but I think it's either size 5 or 8.

It's up to 70 leaves and I just have one vine left to do.
