To me, this block had a lot of orange and black on it, with some Asian themes. Here it is before my work. The block is Diane M's.
And here it is after I finished. I added a fan I crocheted from perle cotton I found here in Montevideo and used wooden beads for the tassel ends on the fan. The block didn't have much in the way of seams done, so I did the one between the small fans and mine in half circles of straight stitches outlined with chain. And, to cover pieces of seam between the fan and the flower, I did some whipped chain stitch swirls. Lastly, I did some straight stitch seam work on the seam at the bottom. I hope Diane likes it. It's already been mailed to the next person.

Meg, it's looking so good!!! I love all of your additions. This is one of three Asian blocks that I put together and will form a wall hanging when finished. The second block I am doing, and the third I have let my sister loose to do what she likes! It's great fun to see how this one is growing in the RR.
I'm glad you like it!
