Feel free to comment on which peacock looks best. The other will probably be used in a pillow.

The stamp panel only got a red border on it to bring it up to a more convenient size. It is now 20.5 x 24.5 inches.

I like the second peacock better because the gold brings out the head area. Both are lovely, but the border does over whelm the 1st. Really like your ribbon. Red border also looks good.
Everyone's medallions are looking good. Still working on my center. Made my 1st round today to add as soon as the center is finished. Had to let my finger rest from the applique'.
