Garden Steps :: Block Seven

We have another block my mom designed this week!  It's so great to be able to work together on this project.

I hate to admit that I didn't pay close enough attention and turned my flowers on their side {remember, layout to the quilt blocks is important!

I think they still look pretty, but I just wish I had turned them!

I used satin stitch for the center of the flowers and the leaves, split stitch for the flower outlines, and back stitch for the leaf outlines.

I also used blanket stitch around the flower centers, I really like how it turned out, but there isn't a tutorial for it yet...would you like one, or are you all familiar with blanket stitch?
