....however it just did not turn out how I expected - it does not look like a bloom but more like an amorphous cell (just like the ones I have been working on for my latest Biology publication at work! lol!)
So, today I will be frogging the entire thing! Now, this is the second time I have frogged something I stitched on this piece of linen - I didn't like the butterfly I stitched the first time, either. However, I think that I have found the right design this time! I have a second piece of linen the same size, which I have half stitched a squirrel on it. Both pieces are gifts for my swapaway and are meant to go in the lid of a round box.
So, today the plan is frogging and then re-stitching a new design for the third time! Wish me luck!
Don't forget to check out whether everyone else who signed up for FNWF was more successful than me!
hugs,
Update: 6pm: It took me most of the day but it is all frogged now - so onto Attempt #3 tomorrow!

I think it's pretty! I'm not a biologist though so maybe I don't see the connection.
An amorphous cell? Really? Lol. But I think it looks like a flower with nice colours. But like Justine I'm not a biologist, so ....
Hello Kaye,
Good luck with the unpicking. Have a Happy Easter.
Bev.
Lol Kaye.....you're your own worst critic :) It's not quite as amorphous as you think :D
Good luck with the frogging!
I actually like it Kaye. But YOU need to like it. ;)
A Blessed Easter to you!
Awww, I think it's pretty! Vickie's right though -- you have to be happy with it.
Sorry you had to frog it Kaye. I thought it was pretty.

Bummer! And linen is such a pain to frog. Third time has got to be the charm. The colours are pretty though - too bad it doesn't look very blossomy!

What a shame you were disappointed but you have to be pleased with it xx
You could have added longer petals round the edge... Or joined the SAL Mr X Stitch is currently featuring.

LOL... An amorphous cell! That's so funny. I don't think it looks bad at all. Hope you're happier with the third attempt! :D
