Love Entwined another finished vase

Another vase finished and I think I am staring to fell the love again for this quilt. Thanks for all the encouraging comments on this one, I think I just needed to get some perspective. These vases look so much better once stitched down, the details really seem to shine then. Here is a good comparison of the same vase. Before stitching.

And after, with embroidered stems added as well. I am using a tiny chain stitch with two strands of floss for these little stems and I just love them.

So here is where I am so far. Hope to get the next vase prepped later today.

    I knew you would get into this project again!! This vase and flowers are stunning. The teal really makes this quilt top sing.

    The broderie perse flowers are especially beautiful! I'm trying to decide if I should start my LE back up or just pack it away. There's something about my version I just do not like. Yours, however, is gorgeous!
