I have had a hard time getting a half-way decent photo of it because of the subtle colours---they weren't playing the game properly--the lime green was too bright and the gold butterfly decided it wanted to be orange.
No matter where I tried to take the photo (out side or inside) it just didn't look right---so after taking over thirty photos I gave up.
This is the closest to the real colours that I could get.
I was not too sure about the colours when I saw them on Sharon's blog but I really do like them now that it is finished.
Now to catch up on all the other things that I have to do--this seems to be my favourite words at present--catch up--catch up---catch up.

It is absolutely beautiful. I am in awe of all the detail of the embellishing. Great Job!!!
Doreen your block looks lovely !!
Bee-oo-ti-ful job Doreen! After all that worry about the colours, I think you did wonderfully.
You really do amazingly lovely blocks Doreen. I am in awe of them but I dont think all that tiny work is for me.
It's beautiful, Doreen. No matter how hard I try I will never "catch up".
You have made these colours look wonderful put together - very 'gentle'.
I think 'catch-up' seems to be on everyones lips at the moment. There are just so many brilliant blogs out there, just not enough time to read and do.
Hi
It is well know in the world of photography that one of the hardest things to photograph are textiles and embroidery especially if there is any metallic or shine in there and there usually is. So you did a good job to represent your piece acurately.
Hazy bright days outside give the best results.
Cheers
Well, I thought the photo of your piece for the July TIF challenge was wonderful and your work is spectacular. The embellishment is awesome. Bernadette
I just dropped by to take another look, up close. The 'gentleness'and diversity and detail of your embellishments brought tears to my eyes - Doreen it's exquisite! Val
It's lovely!
amazing! congratulations for this beautiful piece.
Another fabulous TIF CQ block Doreen!! You are incredible - very disciplined. I love the colours you've used in this one (and they aren't my "usual" colours either!)
It turned out to be a beautiful block.
Your block is awesome! I love the bright colors and all of the awesome stitching you have done! awesome work!
Well Doreen , right colours or not, this is a wonderful piece of work, a real treasure, you've turned that colour scheme into something stunning!!
This is lovely! You have done a wonderful job with putting it all together. Beautiful embellishing. And I recognise some of the lace you bought when you were in Melbourne (I wish I had of bought more during my visit).
