Baltimore blooms

Yes, I am still working on this bloomin' Baltimore...

This block needs some embroidery for stems added later. I am trying to work on the applique while I really feel like it. (Sometimes that urge disappears for some reason...of course we all know why don't we?) Here are those flowers close-up that took over 2 hours each. I improved as I went along, the yellow one is definitely my favourite, it's just as well it has the prime position front and centre.

Next I want to do another block with 3-dimensional flowers - these ones are a mixture of yo-yos and embroidery.
I will let you know how I progress.
