I stitched the ice dyed flower piece to the background, got all the flowers stitched down and now I have to decide if I want to add the leaf sprigs or not.
Here is the entire piece with the added leaf sprigs and an extra cheesecloth flower on the left edge.
Here it is without the leaf sprigs (I left the flower).
Here’s a closer view with the extra leaves.
And without. What do you think? Should I use the leaf sprigs or not? I can’t decide.
I did add a little bit of stitching out into the border of additional leaves.
So there are leaves going over the border of the red into the green. So do you think I need to add the leaves? What’s your vote? Do you have any good ideas for a name for the piece? I keep calling it ice flowers but not sure that’s really a good name.
