Just kidding, Kathleen! You are so skilful with needle and thread I have no doubt you would create something uniquely beautiful.<br />I don't mind fresh flowers on our table,but they leave such a mess when they are finished dropping leaves and petals :-( I usually have a bunch of artificial (silk) roses in a vase on our table. They belonged to my late mother in law, and for years I thought they were fresh flowers because they look so real. So I was glad to 'inherit' them when the family were clearing her house. Nobody else wanted them!Gina E.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07532527261977368083noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-268529800904221520.post-20694194241769405662016-06-29T06:57:15.016-07:002016-06-29T06:57:15.016-07:00They are all so beautiful.

You have captured it perfectly. I use all sorts of vases and even old sauce bottles to hold flowers.<br /><br />Happy days.<br />Bev.Bev Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01779873950474515819noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-268529800904221520.post-87205009562405276332016-06-27T12:47:40.383-07:002016-06-27T12:47:40.383-07:00Kathleen, your flowers are beautiful, and as alway...Kathleen, your flowers are beautiful, and as always, you have replicated them true to form. Your zinnia is lovely - yes, I love to have flowers on my table or counter top, though I don't have them often.

I have an old blue bottle that is one of my favorite "vases" and sometimes I also use mason jars. There is an arrangement of blue hydrangeas on my dining table now; they are such interesting flowers. lil red henhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15494641068959278096noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-268529800904221520.post-59932617285100892542016-06-23T07:57:17.462-07:002016-06-23T07:57:17.462-07:00I just love your embroidery, Kathleen, and you cer...I just love your embroidery, Kathleen, and you certainly captured those coneflowers perfectly, they are exactly like the real thing!Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10872993421541750625noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-268529800904221520.post-67567622076590306352016-06-23T05:58:21.686-07:002016-06-23T05:58:21.686-07:00I have never seen those coneflowers because if I e...I have never seen those coneflowers because if I ever did, I'd be grabbing them up.
