2nd CQ block

So here is the second block I have managed to finish 


from Cathy's box of goodies


I started to embroider the arches and didn't like them


they seemed to compete with the trim below it

I wanted something in this corner to brighten up the block


and give it a bit of sparkle


I also felt this needed a spider and web


I had some of those flower beads laying around from something else 


They fit so well, color wise, 


and were just enough to fit 


so on they went


I needed to fill space with something brown 


These buttonhole leaves seem to fill the space nicely




This lace motif fit the color scheme so on it went


but it needed more to it. 

I had to hunt up the right button 

I tried bigger ones but they didn't fit. 

This little glass peach button was broken in the box found both pieces and a little E6000 fixed that .

The round lentil beads were perfect to fit between the lines.


A spider and a few more beads to tack down the flyaways on that trim and it's done!

I might throw on a bird charm or two but I think it's good.
