Kookaburra Stitching Complete

I've been very busy stitching my block for the Houston Silent Auction in the last couple of days. I think that I have just about done all the stitching that it needs.
 I added the fish near the bottom of the block using needle turn applique and used a few blanket stitches for their tails.
Next I will be adding some ribbon work and some beads.

What a great contribution! I love studying your stitching and how you have developed the block into a total piece of art. Congratulations!

It's beautiful! I will look for it in Houston. I've made one for the auction, too.

What a lovely piece! And what imaginative embellishments--it's sure to attract a lot of bids.

Well done!

Thank you Norma, I don't know if I'll be going this year. I have a couple of friends going over so I might be persuaded to go as well.
