    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.

    The vines and leaves definitely look real. Thank you for sharing how this was done. It's awesome.
