Great job on your violets! They are just the right shade of blue to really pop on that pretty background. Love it!

Great job. My embroidering machine is sick and needs a Dr. but since it seems to cost $100. for the 'Dr' to just cast his eyes upon it, I'm afraid it will have to stay sick!
No, I'm afraid I don't have a machine with the ability to embroider. This is all by hand and long & short, split, staggered stitches are from my feeble memory of hand embroidery years ago. Regards. S

Violets are some of my favorites. I have many, but those are so dainty and lovely.
