Plum blossom done

Here 'tis. What do you think? Also, next project: Maybe the same pattern with different filling stitches. Two new pieces of linen are drying now to shrink.

Thanks, Lorelei! I'm thinking of doing a finished square around the circle in 4-sided stitch, turning it under, but I'm also thinking of stretching the whole thing around a piece of black foamboard. No reason I couldn't do both. The circle looks kind of bare by itself. Must think about it. There's also getting a cheap embroidery hoop and using it for a "frame" to hang on the wall.

Looks really good. How will you finish the edges?
