I have been working on my Chinese silk embroidery kit (not really worked in Chinese style). I added a lot of leaves, and started work on the flower. The flower has bold shading instead of gently changing shades, which is turning out even better than I thought it would. I am looking forward to attempting the birds.

Great job! Are you going to fill in everything colored? Or are you to leave some leafs un-done for depth?
Oh I hadn’t thought of that! I will have to think it over. Hmmmmmm!
I love the shading in the lotus. Beautiful!
thank you!
Your embroidery is very beautiful, Keep up the great work!!

I recommend leaving some of the leaves un-stitched as Therese suggested as it will make a good contrast.
Yes, the more I think about it the more I like it.
Love the colours in the Lily!
