Finally got some pics taken of my 1st few applique blocks...
Would really welcome feedback on how I can improve my work.
These were all done with needle turn technique.

Looks good. Lovely colorful flowers.

I like how you've added accent stitching. I would keep adding accents to each flower, and continue with the simple stem line on each of the leaves if even only from the base of the leaf outward just a short way. Hope this makes sense.

Where did you get the pattern for these flowers?

Keep us updated with pictures as you progress.
