Last week's progress (May 4 - May 10)

This week I finished up my May flower of the month, Lily of the Valley. I did the border first and forgot to leave spaces where the leaves overlap into the border. Instead of ripping out all of those border stitches, I just stitched over them with the green. I don't think it's very noticeable.

Also, up until this month, I had been using three stands of floss, as recommended in the pattern. I decided that three strands looked too messy. This month I switched to two strands. I think it looks so much better! I wish I had used two from the beginning!
