Bloom where you are planted

With spring finally arriving, I had the urge to embroider some designs with flowers in them. One of my favorite expressions is "Bloom where you are planted", so when I saw this design from Embroidery Library I knew I had to stitch it. Other designs from their garden department shortly followed, and then they just "grew" into a quilt! Isn't it amazing how a small project can just grow into something larger, and then blossom into a rare gem?

My favorite thing to do around embroidery is called scribbling. It's a type of micro-stippling that is very forgiving --- you just can't make a mistake!

I hope you enjoy the pictures below, and that all of your spring days are filled with flowers.
