Switching gears, but keeping with the flower theme this week---I took a little detour from the state flower blocks over the weekend with this project. This delightful bouquet is part of the free-with-purchase bonus transfers for April. I used a long & short stitch for the filled areas (instead of a tighter satin-stitch), and I love the effect. My plan for this is forthcoming--as I hope to get back to some serious sewing soon!

Oh, so lovely! Thoughts of my grandmother come to mind--she loved violets...

Very pretty and I like that short and long stitch method, too.
