I didnt enjoy stitching the Hibiscus as much as I have the other flowers and I think it was because it didnt look right as I was stitching. However now its done and the backstitch has been added its lovely. As it was such a lovely afternoon I managed to take the picture outside amongst the forget me nots and bluebells, the garden is looking very bluey at the moment with these flowers on the ground and the lilacs and wisteria just coming into bud above them.Thanks for all the lovely comments. They are really appreciated and I just love to know you enjoy looking at my work.

Your alphabet is looking lovely Helen and so are your bluebells and forget-me-nots:)
This is such a pretty piece, and you're moving along well on it ;)
Beautiful piece & beautiful garden Helen - really watching the alphabet grow. :0)
what a lovely photo Helen it's hard to tell the stitched flowers from the real ones :)
It's looking really pretty, I am enjoying watching this one grow.
So pretty. I'm amazed at how much difference backstitch can make to some pieces.
Your piece is lovely Helen!
You will enjoy it even more next winter!

Have a nice wekend!
Wow your alphabet is very pretty.
And your flowers are too!
Lovely alphabet! The forget-me-nots are taking over my garden too!
Lovely alphabet and flowers!
It is looking beautiful, and what a perfect way to show it off by placing it by your flowers. The weather certainly was cooperating for you. Glad to see on your earlier post that they were able to take the kitty piece that you did after all. It was so cute, and with the purple yarn it fit the coloring asked for. It will be a wonderful addition to the quilt.

That is going to be beautiful. I enjoy coming to your blog. Glad Love Quilts was able to use your kitty piece. It is a cute piece.
The alphabet piece is beautiful! I will probably be forced to do it myself.
I enjoy your blog.
