Progress on Diane's block.....
You can see the marvelous piece of lace I found that repeats Faye's seam of circles... perfect, right? I added the dragonfly at the center and am working on the rose cluster in the lower corner. The rose appears darker than it is. The ribbon I used was organza so is actually very airy.... I beaded the painted button and it is just pinned approximately as I want to do a couple seams in that area and then the fan. I am going to make the deadline as DH will be gone for 2 days and my evenings will be free to stitch.....

This is very lovely, Gerry. (no surprise there!). Wish we could sit and relax and stitch together. Guess I have to wait 4 more months for that. Anyway, I love that organza rose and your dragonfly, especially her *wings*. Hugs, Cathy
Simply gorgeous, Gerry! The organza flower looks beautiful and the trim was a real find!
Hugs,
