Spring House 2 (still WIP)

Well, instead of focusing on my asparagus on Move it Out Monday, I stuck with the Spring House:

I decided to fix one of the mistakes I had made the day before, and I think it looks better. What happened was, I stitched the flower stem and leaves a little wrong (coming out of the chimney). But then I realized I had also used light green instead of dark green, and since I had plenty of dark green left I pulled out the mistake and fixed it.

You can see the colors better in this scan, for some reason. I still have the center of one flower to do, and two bees (and their flight paths) to add. Plus all the bees' wings and stingers, and stripes.

I haven't clipped all the threads on the back yet, which is why you can see some of them showing through in the bigger scan.

I'm thinking of adding the words "home sweet home" to this when I'm done, if I can find an alphabet I like.
