On Its Way Home

I was the last person to work on Arlene's Bees, Butterflies, and Beetles block.  Here's a picture of it before my work.

And here it is after I worked on it.  I added a couple of seams - one is a flower trellis and the other is a fly stitch braid - toward the middle of the block.  I also added some vines, flowers and ladybugs at the top right of the block and a big beetle on the left middle.  I like the way the variegated silk worked on the wings.  I also added a couple of butterfly charms just above the butterfly in the middle.  I hope she likes it.  It's on its way home to Australia as I write.
