Thank you so much!! If you look carefully, one of the wheat embroidered places was upside down! I have pulled it out and redone it since I took that pic!
As for the hummingbirds...I was playing around with 2 diff. colored threads on top...that's why the hummer looks so fat! Also took the pic before I washed out the wash away stabilizer, so that's what the white is behind the flowers! I have learned a lot and am getting better with every project, and more confident...I love embroidery and can't wait to start my next project!!
