Gentle friends, I finished up the final band int he center... here's a snap...
... I used two strands of silk for the Satin Stitches, and only a single strand for the Rhodes Stitches. I tried using two for the Rhodes stitches, but they got clumpy and just didn't look right.... I really enjoyed this band and think it turned out nicely. Now on to the over one stitching and the rest of the flowers..
