A Silky Round Robin

I don't know how it happened, but I am now in four simultaneous round robins.  This is a block from the third one to start, silk ribbon embroidery.  It's Diane M's block, and she put a picture of a cottage in Scotland in the middle of it.  I was the first one to work on it, and this is the third block of hers I've worked on this month.  She's in three round robins with me, and this was my month to do her block in all three.

Anyway, here's what I did:
I added a cherry branch to the upper left corner and then a rose swag below it.  I also added a ruched and rickracked seam treatment, some rose beads, and a bead trim.  I left the middle for someone else to play with, and it's now on its way to Australia.
