 When I prepared the photo to put on the block I put a layer of batting under the photo….Before stitching the photo on I took the batting out because it made the photo sit to high off the block.
Originally I was going to put the beaded braid along the left side and across the top, when I got the photo stitched on I didn’t like the way the braid looked and thought if I put the gathered organza ribbon under the braid it would blend the braid in….
When I got the organza ribbon stitched on I still didn’t like the way the braid looked and thought about what else I could do…I like the look of the green beads but don’t have enough green beads and opted for a line of green Stem Stitch

What an absolutely lovely photo. I agree with the green stitching – it’s just enough to separate, without taking over. Too bad I’m not over there with all my beads – I have tons of greens, because it’s my favorite color! This looks just as good, though.
