Easter Project - Part Two



I have an update on my Easter stitching.  I have been filling in flowers, leaves and stems.  


I have taken out the pale pink floss on the text, it was way too light for the rest of the color palette. 

I am thinking that maybe I shouldn't have done ALL the lazy daisy flowers in this dark pink {?} but I think I will wait until I have filled in more of the motifs to decide:



You can see I am dangerously close to the end of my dark purple floss {DMC #340} so as soon as I find some more, I can finish this up!

Hi Kim,
It is lovely. The dark pink is a good choice. It 'll be uplifting once you finish the entire motif. Waiting to see the completed work:)

Gorgeous Kim - how do you keep your work so pristine and neat? (Sigh.....)

I like it!
Maybe if you use a yellow in the lazy daisy flowers (the little dot) the pink itsn't so present? - but again I like it and I'm suspected because I LOVE yellow! :)

Malika - Thank you! It is already looking more in place as I am finishing the top - I will post a picture this week.
Darlene - Great I do too, there will be a few more when I fill in the flower centers and add the random French knots
Thank you Jules! I am loving that roumanian stitch - it looks so neat and tidy even in curvy shapes!
Papgena - Thank you! I love yellow too :) that is a really good idea!

On your Lazy Dasies, maybe the knots can be of a different color or different pink? Just a thought
