The first time I tried to needleturn the holly leaves. Forget it! (Don't ever try it... trust me!)
Then I tried to free-motion machine applique them on... they just looked shaggy compared to the rest of the needleturn blocks.
Here is my third (and final) attempt. I am hand blanket-stitching them on, then embroidering stems.
Ah well, it's a little bit of handwork isn't it?
